As a matter of complex machining I wonder what it would take to make a 3-lug Mauser using interrupted locking lugs like a Newton? I believe the Newton had three interrupted lugs on one side and four on the other. Imagine three rows of lugs with three interrupted lugs on two sides and four on the third. Two of the lug arrays would need to have three due to the claw extractor having to rotate on to them or at least it appears that way.

I've always been intrigued with the interrupted lug arrangements like the Newton and the Ross.

There wouldn't be any real advantage to all of this except it would be incredibly cool. It would have a 60 degree bolt lift and the ejector slot would fall naturally between two of the lugs and not have to bisect a lug like the Mauser or be offset like the Newton, Winchester Model 70, etc.

This is one of those things that if I hit the lottery...
