Fraser Magazine Rifle Project
      28/11/12 03:48 PM

Thought I'd share a project I'm currently working on. The bottom metal pictured is for a client's 98 Mauser, though Fraser typically used 93s as his foundation. I too personally prefer to build on 93-96s and Dutch Mannlichers due to how trim and svelte of a rifle they are. With the 98 I had to deal with the lock screw recess that isn't present on the 93-96 actions, but I think it turned out rather nicely and follows Fraser's design style. The trigger guard bow was also filed to shape based on Fraser's practice of narrowing, reshaping, and terminating the forward portion into a style that is more shotgun like.

A 96 action with flattened forward receiver ring awaiting serrations, a 96 bolt body with Fraser bolt handle, and the 98 bottom metal described above. All on top of an original Fraser I blueprinted.
