Thanks Fred for posting the photos, I bought it because it seemed like a good deal even though it was a Mauser. Took it out of the stock and it was made by Kreighoff. It is a post war gun and Michael told me the 52 after the serial number must mean 1952 as 1952 was the first year that the German gunsmiths could sell guns to the public. It's a very light weight rifle.
