[QUOTE="Doc Mach, post: 3006782, member: 79577"] On the LH side of the military receivers look for these words: Deutsche Waffen-Und MunitionsFabrriken Berlin, aka DWM. Many countries chartered their military rifles manufacturing through DWM and had stamped a country name and image on the top and side of the forward receiver ring. The Mauser Model Argentino 1909 has been a popular basis to build a sporterized action from, due to the quality of workmanship requested in those actions and the "bottom metal" which has a hinged floor plate for the magazine. The Argentine Army took very good care of these rifles and many still have beautiful bluing on the metal work. It may be stamped as any number of countries name, but if it says DWM on it, you can bet it came from Germany. [/QUOTE]
