Rifle that was made in 1985
Mexican Mauser with .243 Shilon match grade barrel.
Stock is myrtle with walnut forend tip and grip cap.
Craftsmanship is rough , such as the checkering but this is the first rifle I machine from barrel stock.
She is missing parts and has rust.
The design elements are the state of the art from the day.

Cranky done most the work on my 243. I keep thinking about having him build me a 308 scout rifle out of a Mauser.son of liberty wrote:I can't see the pic, but want to. I been thinking a mauser in 280 is on my short list
