    Kongsberg M59F1 Sniper rifle

    I’ve posted here as it’s Mauser ? Recently bought one in an auction, unfortunately it doesn’t have the scope, bracket or mount and is missing rear sight, if anyone has any details of these or has any bits for sale I’d be interested, ( UKicon based)
    I’ll post some pics of rifle when I collect it.

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Scope offset so far you'd have to use your left eye.

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Thanks Rob, seen that bit on wiki, I’d of thought there would be more info out there on them, did find it strange being an offset scope during that period.
    The rear sight is missing also on the one I’ve purchased plus the fore sight has been replaced with what looks like an AJ parker one.
    Be one one of them rifles I’ll have to store till bits show up. In the meantime think I can knock up some sort of side mount so I can retro fit a repro K98 scope bracket etc.
