Hi guys,
I went with a buddy to a gun show on the west coast of Fl. over the weekend. While we were waiting in line we saw a guy trying to sell a Browning HP rig his uncle had brought back from WWII. My bud did some negotiating and managed to snag the pistol. The seller then volunteered that he had a Mauser rifle and some other things at home. He gave us his phone number and told us to give him a call when we finished walking the show. Well after spending a few unfruitful hours cruising the aisles we gave him a jingle and arranged to meet. The rifle turned out to be a bnz 45 date in the “T” block , all matching with a pristine bore and a stock that had been inexpertly varnished. The metal parts are mostly phosphate with some blued ones mixed in. Here are some pics.
Best regards,
Len
