Hope you don't mind me asking the price of the kit. I've never seen a "Kit" such as this before. I did not know they were even a "thing". Looks like a model 96 action by the length of the firing pin housing and pin protrusion.




Not at all - I bought it for 390 Euros. (Euros and Dollars are pretty much the same as far as I know). The company that sold them closed a gunsmith's shop and they found a couple of those kits in some dusty corner, made by Santa Barbara in the 70's in various calibers. Mine was the last they sold, and I immediately jumped on it despite having never done much work on a gun.
As a huge Mauser fan I just had to have it!

Its a true large ring Mauser 98 action, it is identical with the commercial FN Mauser 98 action.

Good thing they sold them all but mine, I would have bought them all!

The barreled action:



It also came with a certificate from the factory, it was inside the box. Date 1975!
With it came a manual in English that described the steps to finish the kit.
