Dating a couple of Mauser rimfires
      02/01/12 09:08 AM

Hello all

Hoping someone can date a couple of Mauser rimfires.

First one

Serial number 213879. Registered as Model 410

Safety on cocking piece.

Magazine well is well forward of the trigger gaurd

It is a sporter, with open sights.

Very nice two stage trigger.

In almost every way a miniature 98

Roundel on butt stock

Right side of action

Left side of action

Underside

Butt plate

Mauser logo on front action ring

Side view of the scope

Looking the the look through mounts

Top view of scope

What does this inscription say


It came with a Landlicht type E scope, would this have been standard fare for such a rifle?

Second one

Serial number 38281. Registered as a model 92

Safety is where bolt release would normally be on a 98

Magazine well is hard up against the trigger gaurd.

It is a sporter, but has no open sights.

Nice two stage trigger.

Bolt has two diameters. Larger in the back half.

EDIT: This one is cock on close, the other one on open
Left side of action

Underside showing magazine retainer

Bolt

Mauser logo on front action ring

Interesting keyhole in barrel just forward of stock, maybe for a sling?

The only thing on the barrel that suggests it may have had open sights

Fore stock


I'll try and get some photos tonight if required.


Many thanks

CF
