DR Deer

It would be great if you could post more photos of that model Mauser.

The bolt by itself for example. Thanks.

It is a model I have not seen before.

Another reason for its lack of success, might be the designation ie M96 being confused with the Model of 1896 or the weaker Swedish Mauser.

If that model Mauser M96 has a capacity of 5 rounds it easily outdoes the Blaser with its tiny magazine capacity. One of its failings. And the new combined magazine/trigger of the latest Blaser R8 will be looked at with "awe" (sarcasm) IMO by future firearm enthusiasts.

If the rifle is also lightish, the M96 sounds again like an improvement on other recent Mauser designs which always seem to be very heavy - M66, M03, M77(?).
