plans are to: (1)Replace recoil pad with a more up to date black solid unit.




I would think twice before replacing the recoil pad! These red rubber "Jostam Anti Flinch" pads with the slant vents are quite "period" with the rifle, as they were availble well before WW2. They are quite often found on pre-war Mauser sporters. See f.i. Jon Speed's "Original Oberndorf Sporting Rifles", page 193. Afaik These recoil pads were offered by Mauser as a factory option. So it may be original to the rifle, other than the open sights.




Ye-Gads!!!! It is a Jostam pad. Never even thought it might be original. It has patent dates of 1914, 1915 and 1927 printed on it. I just assumed it was a Pachmyer pad from the 50's. Who would have thought?

Do you know of any of the current reprint Mauser catalogs that shows this option?
