question re: caliber markings/proofs - DWM prewar sporter
      21/06/09 02:21 PM

I recently bought a prewar Mauser sporter built on a DWM action and I could use some help in identifying the caliber, proofs, etc. The rifle looks like an Oberndorf Type B on a standard length action with pear shaped bolt, cheekpiece, later style pistol grip with cap, barrel mounted front sling swivel, and English style leaf sights (possibly a later addition). I will post some shots of the rifle later, but in the meantime I have attached some shots of the markings on the gun to see whether anyone may be able to help interpret the markings. The markings in the photos are the only ones on the rifle, other than "Deutsche Waffen-Und Munitionsfabriken Berlin", which is marked on side of the action.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks
