I'll say!! Super re-blued and stock sanded to shite. Hard to believe some post this stuff but know the unwary will often grab it up especially these days.

Oh and that BIN price!

Number matching with a stock that has grooves? I don’t feel even a tiny bit bad for the person that bones themselves on this one.

 

[Pisgah]

finger grooves...
Notice that there are no photos showing the entire rifle or even the sides of the buttstock. I'm guessing it is an Israeli postwar stock, but who knows. Just wrong. Way wrong.

Well Mitchell's Mausers and RCs are 'numbers matching' so there's that.

If one took 3 separate shits in a day, are they numbers matching too?

Photo #6 looks like someone got a Harbor Freight numbers punch set for Christmas and really wanted to use it

 

[SVW1945]

Even the butt plate was blued.

Gotta love the contrast between the strikes on the bolt flat

Even the butt plate was blued.

and it looks to me like the upper screw was reused from a flat bp rifle, has that distinctive shape/wear pattern.

I have a repro beech stock set I bought on ebay several years ago that looks very similar to what is shown in the pics. Solid beech, mine was made for a single ‘spike’ style front band spring (like a Vz24) & subsequently modified for K98k style spring by (badly) cutting a longer groove. has no TD disc or hole in regular location, or in the toe of the butt,(cupped plate) is NDFCR, no markings anywhere, I believe is commercial repro of something, not nore than 15-20 years old by the surface condition. (very clean, but not ‘cleaned’) Mine hasn’t ever had an action installed, just pulled it out this week to consider using on a shooter project. I like the finger grooves!

[Zeppelin5000]

This is one if those sellers that knows shite about what he is selling... Oh and those photos are shite too. Not that they are needed to see that the rifle is shite. shite....

 

[kampfy]

How many photos of the left side of the extended rear sight leaf does one need? At least two apparently.

& those two don’t show anything …….

 

[Hambone]

Good grief. It looks like someone pimped and wanked a Mitchell’s.

 

[Herk1994]

Oh boy, the bidding has begun

 

[Gerst]

Even the butt plate was blued.
