I am looking at a Mauser carbine of some sort, very light and short (41" overall). Curved bolt handle. Light colored unfinished wood. It has the same serial number in 3 places. The five digit serial number is preceded by "OT". There are no other visible markings. Someone told me that it could be Yugoslavian (M44?)that was sold to Israel in early 50's and before shipping all markings were removed to prevent anyone from knowing who sold to Israelis. I even heard the OT stood for "Old Testament." I dont own a Mauser and owner is asking $150 for this one. Should I buy?
