I'm thinking this one is an import. I just looked at my two Spanish Mausers, neither of them are marked. Assuming that The Legends are correct in calling these Spanish-possessed guns, I guess it's fair to say some their German stuff peppered the crates when we imported them pre-'68.
Kind of a semi-related rant here. I'm growing weary of looking at every German gun being labeled a bring back just because it lacks the stamp. I got this from the widow of the vet who just passed away Shiva rest his soul. No you didn't. Shut the hell up. And unless you have some paperwork, it's just another gun.
You know I'm not ****ing at you about it...I'm just ****in'.
These are neat little rifles, I'm happy you're able to snag one. Now find one of the original Kar98s, before they tweaked them into 98a, and you'll undoubtedly have me giddy!
