I can't let Dave have all the fun at garage sales...
I picked this one up through a garage sale transaction a few months back. Kind of unusual based on model, condition and lack of import markings. It's 7x57 with crest for Venezuela contract. I haven't cleaned it, and haven't looked in bore other than to see it's still coated with cosmoline... I'll let you judge the exterior condition.
Any Mauser fans out there?
It was made pre- WWII, probably early 1930's.
