i took it to the local gun shop and he said it was a 8MM Mauser Sporterized

You need to find a shop that hires people who know what they are talking about. This kind of ignorance could lead to serious problems!!!
I guess any sporterized military rifle that this guy sees he calls a "Mauser"

I believe that he already has as he has test fired it and gotten a proper appraisal of it already.

Thank God you didn't attempt to fire 8mm Mauser ammo through that Arisaka! (it may not have chambered though anyways - but just the same)

Mike Irwin,

It may be better said that the .308 is right in there with the 8mm Mauser and the .30-06, rather than the other way around. The old parent cartridges might take offense!
