What a wonderful, whimsical article.....

I love the idea of a Mauser / Mannlicher as I surely love both designs and own some wonderful examples of each. They provide me so much intrinsic pleasure they should almost be classed as controlled substances (I said almost).

I wander though, the Mannlicher magazine works with the cartridge and bullet shape it was designed for, often the 6.5x54 may not feed well or at all with some short pointy bullets. Can this sort of thing limit the versatility of the grand old Mauser by limiting what bullet the cartridge can use?

Still, I guarantee you if someone built the darn thing I'd buy one just to have it.
