Looking for some learned opinions...
So I’m considering picking up another Mauser. I’m considering both a Turkish M1903 Mauser and a Chilean Modelo M1912 Mauser. The M1903’s seem (from my research) to be a little rougher due to poor maintenance but be a little less expensive. The M1912’s seem to be considered better quality and have probably seen less hard use. I have zero experience with either. For those that do...
1) What are you opinions of each and what would you recommend going with?
2) What is a fair price for one in good condition with all matching numbers? Without matching numbers?
3) Would you recommend going with one over the other? Why?
