Strange about the Mausers though is the value. A Holland, Rigby, Purdey and Jeffery Mauser always seem to have a higher value than an original Oberndorf Sporter and yet some of these English rifles e.g. Jeffery, used military actions for their firearms. None of the English makers actually made the actions or barrels of their bolt rifles (as far as I’m aware). Nothing wrong with the English guns of course and most of them were fancied up with engraving, drop mags, fancy sights, and higher grade wood work.

Of course you could take an original Van Gogh and pretty up, or make a copy, but the original would always retain the higher value by a country mile.

To me the original Oberndorf sporter as it came from the factory has to be the ultimate, everything else is a pretender. Well sort off, anyone got a Rigby they wish to give away to a good home?
