[QUOTE="ofbandg, post: 2882550, member: 91402"] I'm a bit of a Mauser nut. I can't remember how many I have rebuilt over the years and this makes me biased in their favour. Getting it checked out by a gunsmith is a must even if it's a model 98 because it could still be pre WW1. For what it's worth, most of the 7x57 military Mausers I have encountered were earlier models. If you want to turn your rifle into a classic there is no end to the amount of money you can spend. If you are looking for the ultimate in accuracy and function spend it on something newer, but if you are looking for something that feels like a hunting rifle in your hands the Mauser is as good as it gets.
