Price check on Venezualan Mauser...Good Condition but non matching bolt headspace was checked by a certified gunsmith and is cool

What kind of Venezuelan Mauser?

Flipper 56 · January 1, 2010, 02:33 PM

7x57 mm about the same sixe as a model 38 Swedish Mauser.

So, it's a short rifle, then.

Is it a vz.24 or a Fabrique Nationale?

Could it have said Oberndorf on the bolt? I remember it had the crest on the receiver. It's snowing like mad here in the Catskills so I can't drive over and take a closer look. I'll get back to you Tamara. Thanks for your interest.
