    7.62 Chileno Mauser

    I'm looking at buying a 1895 Chileno Mauser that is described as being in "7.62". I know that there are conversions of the 95 Chileno Mauser to 7.62 x 51, but I always thought that the rear receiver bridge or the receiver ring had some notation of the new caliber--".30", "7.62", "Nato" or some such.

    I can find no notation or indication of the conversion anywhere in the pics.
