The Swede one is an original commercial Mauser sporter. It is full-stocked in the style later called "S-type" with double "Schnabel" on the foreend. Otherwise the stock is Mauser factory pre-1913 commercial style. Jon Speed shows photos of two such rifles in his book "Original Oberndorf Sporting Rifles", page 120. The small tangent rear sight was never used on any military Mausers, but was quite popular on early sporters. The same sight, with different range numbers, was also used on many .22 Mausers and on the C96 pistol. Also note the lever-release deep magazine floorplate, used only on 10.75x68s by Mauser.
The Peterlongo rifle is a custom job by a good gunsmith, apparently based on an ex-military action. Except for the calber, not very remarkeable.

because of the caliber very remarkable
full stocks with big bores are rare

The ca 1930 BURGO catalog shows a full-stocked big-bore rifle, very similar to the Peterlongo one. Ex-military action, full octagonal ribbed barrel, full length foreend fastened Sul-style by wedges. IMHO both Peterlongo and Burgsmueller got these rifles from the same source in the Suhl/Zella-Mehlis guntrade, perhaps Schueler?

well, Mahrholdt was a friend of Schüler and I am sure that he got at least the barrels and actions from Suhl. believe he was the only one selling schüler cartridge rifles in austria. Burgsmüller may also have buy his big bores from Schüler but if you compare the full stock from Marholdt/Peterlongo with the Burgsmüller illustration(when this is correct!)I think it speaks for itself.
the burgsmüller stock looks like... this is the weapon for the first strike.

Interesting engavings but the picture has moustache. Did the rifles really have such large grip compared with the rest of the butt or is just the old most-artists-can't-draw-guns thing?
