I have a 96 Mauser with very good metal finish, serial numbers on all parts match. The wood, while in great shape, has had a glossy polyurethane applied. I would like to return the wood to its original finish. Was the factory finish linseed oilicon? Any stain applied?

Are these rifles commonly found in condition as good as this one? Also, what exactly does the stockdisc tell me? I know that the upper portion states that the bore is 6.5 mm, but what other information does it provide?

Thanks for any help.
