And here are pictures of rifle number 2. It is a 7x57 Mauser. If the pics are fuzzy the side of the action reads "DEUTSCHE WAFFEN - UND MUNITIONSFABRIKEN. BERLIN." There is also a tiny crest with a circle around it in front of the serial number (A7429). Also of note, the bolt on this rifle cocks when it is brought forward to chamber another round.
