"I owned two of the single barrel "Trap Grade" Mauser's a few years back, model 496 and model 496 competition. After writing to Germany's Mauser-Werke Oberndorf, they informed me the replacement parts I needed would have to come from Renato Gamba of Brescia, Italy. I did write to and buy my parts for these shotguns from Renato Gamba.
