Questions about my potential first

[Mauserguy85]

I don't see a SN# on the barrel. Replacement or am I missing something?

No serial on barrel for a 1944 Mauser Oberndorf “a” block is correct.

I think the guy offering the trade bought that rifle from buckeye190 unless your in Ohio then it could be him. Rifle seems rather familiar and typically he mentions something like that so the buyer could be repating that info and auction pics.
