![]() ![]() So from what I have read about the markings, it has parts from all three manufacturers. There are no machining/grinding or sanding evident on the rifle that would show that the receiver was messed with in anyway to take the manufacturer off it. A Spanish Mauser receiver, probably a M93 action in 7x57mm. All the numbers are stamped very uniformly and precise.so they came from the same place and they cared for quality. Belgian markings on the bolt of M.1893 Spanish Mauser sn 4971 made by FN. The trigger is a matched serial set as well. not all, the Spanish weapons captured in Cuba, Puerto Rico and the Philippines. Metal finish is worn blue turning a patina, appears mechanically fine. Maker marked in 1930 from the Spanish Oviedo Arsenals. Likely arsenal refurbished over the years of service, serial numbers no longer match (receiver, stock and magazine do). The barrel matches, receiver and bolt group. In good looking condition, and in original 7mm Mauser caliber. Front sight does have the Nazi Eagle with a waA103 stamping. There is a caliber stamping with some letters on the receiver and the same crest/clover stamping on the bottom of the receiver with several random letter markings. The only stamps I see are crest/clover type markings throughout the rifle.they are about 2mm. Now.this Mauser has ZERO manufacturing markings. According to my stepdad his friend served under the Dictator Franco and was a "volunteer" that joined the Germany Army. Story is my stepdad received this rifle when his close friend passed away and included this rifle in his will for my stepdad back in 1970s. Originally our family was from Europe and my stepdad used to live in Hungary, Italy, Switzerland and Spain. My stepdad gave me this Mauser a while back. ![]()
