I have a 98 Mauser that appears to be German icon

. The action is stamped j 47. I have heard that it may have been manufactured by Sauer. Can anyone help please.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

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.
