Badger,

As usual, you are most helpful. Thanks!

I got my Long Branch out to the range the other day for the first time. Overall, I'm pretty pleased with the gun. It grouped nicely. The only issue I experienced was with ejection. The gun would...

That article was very informative, and answered a lot of my questions. Thanks for the info, and link.

If anyone is interested, here is a link to a thread where I've posted some pictures of my ugly Russian Capture. I picked it up today. I think it's a neat piece of...

Badger, thanks for the pics. Mine looks like the 37. That makes a total of 3 confirmed 1937 stocks with the same markings. If I were a betting man, I'd say I have a 1937 Mauser Oberndorf stock.:)

Thanks again, Steve. I really do appreciate the feedback.

Hi Badger,

Thanks for the link. I've been reading through a number of the library threads, viewing pictures. My stock cartouches are somewhat different. It does appear that I have a Mauser...

Thanks Badger for the response and info. The info on this site is very helpful. I'll check into the book, and surf the library some more. I did already order the Lapin Mauser Markings book.

Here is two more...This site is very generous in allowing pictures. Thanks for any feedback. Also, I apologize for the dog hair. I have a Norwegian Elkhound, and his hair often sneaks into my gun...

This thing ended up having a lot more markings on it than I realized. I'm going to try to post them. Any help in identification, would be most appreciated.

Thanks Badger, I shouldn't have a problem with the pictures, but if I do, I'll send them to you. I should have them up by this evening.

Claven,

Thanks for the response. I'll try to get a picture posted tomorrow.

I picked up a couple of Milsurps to decorate my "Man Cave". One is a nice 1942 Mosin Nagant 91-30 that came with accessories, and the second is a 1944 Long Branch, No4 Mk1*. I plan to use them as...
