    Here's one of the rifles that I purchased this month. I looked at a lot of Mausers and settled on this one. It's a Luftwaffe rifle and has the "L" on the buttstock. The only thing that isn't matching is the bolt assembly.















    The sling appears to be original also. Sorry for so many pics!

    I'm new here and this is my second post. I really like this rifle, and I've had it for over 10 years until recently. WRA M-1, 1,200,000 serial range, WB cartouche.

    Just found another bayonet to add to the collection. A 1902 Pattern 1888 Mk III made by Wilkerson. Per the text book only Enfield made Mk III's so either this Wilkerson and my Sanderson Mk III are Mk II upgrades or perhaps there were some made by other factories. Sorry for the bad quality but you can kind of make out the marks.
