[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1292294, member: 24284"] The only time a military Mauser is a 'bargain', is if you can do much of the work to 'sporterize' it yourself. That said, the 1916 Spanish Mauser is useable with low pressure cartridges only. And as far as Mausers go, Spanish steel/case hardening has always been suspect. I'd not waste my time. If you're going to use a Mauser, at least use a model '98. A commercial '98 would be an even better choice. [/QUOTE]
