Is it unusual to find a really nice engraved double square bridge, mannlicher stocked Mauser with a butter knife bolt handle which by its number appears to have been made in 1942.
Talking to a friend in England on the phone who collects Mausers a couple of days ago and he was over the moon with his find.
All civilian production of firearms stopped in Britain at the beginning of the war and you would have thought the same would have applied in Germany unless this rifle was especially made for some Nazi big wig.
