  1. What a lovely bit of iron, and beautifully presented too Ian. So what is in my mind is why the Mauser and not this? The disassembly and operation look squaddy proof. All it needs is a ten round mag and it might almost be as good as an SMLE, and I'd bet a 10 round mag in that calibre would barely upset the balance of the rilfe, and would win in terms of shooting comfort?
