I have a 98 Mauser that appears to be German. The action is stamped j 47. I have heard that it may have been manufactured by Sauer. Can anyone help please.

Book I have The Standard Dictionary of Proof Marks with German WWII Ordnance Codes By Gerhard Wirnsberger translated by R.A Steindler Page 184 - j - unknown as is on Page 185 also unknown - jmh, jtt, jvb, jvd some of the other forumers may have better resource than I.

I think you may be misreading 147
147 was a mark used by Sauer & Sohn, in Suhl
Is the mark worn or damaged? How about a photo?
I took another look and it is 147 rather than J47. Thanks for correcting me.
