Good to see a Mauser post in this forum. It's been a long time.

It reminds me...I'll have to take a look at my Mauser inventory and shoot one or two of them next time I go to the range. Most are German made...including the Turks. I got a Spanish mauser...and then the Czech and the Yugo..and.. ???. No Swedes though.

Believe it or not, I still got nearly a case of old Turk surplus 8mm ammo.

I picked up a nice M96 Swede myself last week, I just need to find time to take some decent pics. Case prep and reloading have been keeping me busy lately, oh, and Christmas too!

Took this one last week while chronoing my indoor loads to ensure they are within range power limits.

Joe :D

Just sold my swede 2 months ago. It was a 1910 like yours but in rougher shape. :USA:
