I've inherited 2 what I believe to be collectable Mausers. I know one is and the other maybe War bring backs. One I believe to be a 1891 and the other is known to be a K98 of IIRC 1938.

 

If we have any Guru's I'd appreciate their input. I might be able to deliver them the rifles for their inspection.

no help here no longer available.. :doh:

Post some pictures up.

Do you know where they were purchased from initially?

Unfortunately they cannot be considered bring backs if there are no papers with them in the gun world

it would be considered a non imported marked rifle with a story which happens quite often.

Very good point about the paperwork. I will post pics late this afternoon or this evening. And I will PM the Guru.

I collect primarily bringback mausers. If you need help of any kind give me a shout. I am more than willing to help you out.

I've put the pic of the 1891 sight in the OP that's what I've never seen before

here's a pic of the rifle overall.

I am not an older mauser guy, but it looks like the rollercoaster sight from a GEW98 on an 1891. Maybe rework for WW1? I dont know on this one, hopefully someone with a bit more knowledge will chime in.
