I had one in 7.62, beautiful condition, but the straight walled case never fed well from the unaltered magazine resulting in a lot of mis- feeding. So I sold it. I’ve always been keen to buy one of those earlier Israeli re-works of a WW1 era action rifles in 8mm. Would be an interesting piece as to what it’s seen etc.

I read an account from an Israeli soldier from the early years that said his 7.62 Mauser was at best a single loader. One from the top of the magazine and that was it. Total junk.

As you say, the guns {at least some of them} appear to have been simply rebarreled w/o regard for magazine alterations.
