![]() I have been looking for one like that for a while now.Įven worse from a collector's point of view, they made a concerted effort to grind off all the old markings and replace them all with new ones of thier own. You are lucky to have one with a matching bolt and reciever. In doing this work, they added componets of their own and mixed up all the parts. I am not sure of their real specification for this, but it involved cutting them all down to a standard length, standardizing the hardware such as swivels, bayonet lugs, etc., converting all to 8mm Mauser if not so already. In the 30's, they decided to rework and standardize the many models of Mausers that they had. All the rifles that they bought were originally of excellent quality. ![]() They bought Mausers from Germany before WWI and mostly from the Czechs, I think, after the war. The Turks were a major user of the Mauser system. ![]() In response to your question about the quality of the Turkish Mausers: its very difficult to say anything about this.
