**Brazilian Mauser Model 1908 Rifle

7x57mm. 29.3" barrel length. SN: B1627. Blued metal finish with polished bolt set in a walnut semi-pistol grip stock with half length upper handguard and mounting adjustable rear leaf notch and front blade sights. Bolt-action repeating rifle fed by an internal box magazine charged with stripper clips. Receiver is struck with the {Seal of Brazil} while the left receiver further shows maker marking DEUTSCHE WAFFEN-UND/MUNITIONSFABRIKEN BERLIN, and the right receiver shows model marking MOD.1908. Rifle shows matching serial numbers to the bolt components, stock, and receiver, but the magazine floorplate does not match. Comes with a cleaning rod and leather sling.

This lot is located in Cincinnati.

Condition
Good. Bore is Frosty with crisp rifling throughout. Metal finish shows a brown patina over the butt and receiver along with some mottled gray patina over the bolt. Barrel retains much of the blue but shows brown patinated streaks and scratches. Stock has rounded edges and shows mars, dents, and some light scratches overall. Sling displays some cracking and wastage.
