Mauser ES (Sorry! MS) 350 B .22 rifle
31/07/12 06:09 PM

Hi All,

I recently had the luck to acquire a lovely rifle in very good original condition.

What makes it unusual (to me at least?) is the sight setup. There is a tangent type rear sight which runs in dovetail grooves along the barrel with numbered positions. There is also a cutout where the whole sight can be removed.

There is also a dovetail on the receiver top which at first one would think is for a scope, but the bolt handle is not designed for scope use, so could this have been for a peep sight or some such? (I've since seen pictures of Mauser raised scope rings with holes to see the iron sights through them as well as a diopter sight set-up which work on these dovetails)

The engraved writing consists of:

PATRONE 22 LONG RIFLE
Serial no is: 123143
Proof marks are crowns over B U & G
Mauser Werke AG Oberndorf An.

And letters that seem to be DRP DRGM.
Any further info would be appreciated!

Pictures below:
