Anyone have an opinion about the quality of the "original German Mauser from WWII" that is advertised in NRA's magazine "First Freedom"? Ad says, "Get your collector grade Mauser only $499."

  Looking for info on a mauser with a full stock. I haven't been able to find an example on the internet. Did they make one or do I have a mauser with a cut down barrel? Thanks

  Yes, there's military versions, commercial versions, and Interarms in Virginia also put out one with a Mannlicher stock.

  The barrel has been cut off at the upper band. Bayonet lug, front sight, and cleaning rod are missing. Stock has been heavily sanded and refinished. Receiver has been drilled and taped for commercial scope.
  
  Unfortunately in it's present condition, it has no value to a military rifle collector. Nominal value $100-$200 as a deer rifle.
