Firearms manufactured after the Gun Control Act (GCA) of 1968 were required to have unique serial numbers applied by the manufacturer.

in the space for the serial number if left blank, i believe there is a ck box which they have to mark in event it is a non serialized piece from manufacturer. The part that contains the serial number (usually the receiver) is still considered a complete firearm by the ATF for shipping purposes no matter what else is attached to it.ДЎ00% correct.:thumb: now i know Rich said it did not have a serial number, that does not make it exempt from any current laws. The receiver itself is still the regulated part and still needs to go through an FFL. It doesn't matter if the bolt is in it or not, if it's working or not. as a life member of the NRA i feel it is my duty to help shed light on a situation which could possibly lead one into doing something illegal whether they know it or not. the thread itself implied a sale to someone out if state. The only thing 'simplified' is a path to federal prison. If the receiver does not have a bolt in it, it is not a working firearm. The bolt should slide right out of a Mouser. Let me simplify, remove the bolt and send it in a seperate box. Considering that there are probably another 100 or so minor variations for many of these models, you can see that it's going to take me a long time to collect them all. This is the sort of thing that makes collecting military Mausers so fascinating! I know of about 400 different major rifle variations by model number. We can all help each other out by sharing information! Maybe he's got enough to start another section here that lists serial numbers?ДЄlso, there's a BIG site for Spanish Mausers at. I know he reads all of the postings here, so he's got this one already. His Data Sheet can be found at -ДЄnd, the administrator for this site is also compiling a database of serial numbers. There's a guy named Fred Masterton from Lincoln University, PA, who's compiling a serial number database. The 'crossed rifles' you refer to are only found on weapons captured by the Soviets, ie: those in captured from the Germans in WWII. It's actually a good improvement, as consistency in manufacturing bullet casings is still a problem.

In addition to the gas port, the bolt has additional ports drilled to allow gas to escape in the event of a burst cartridge. The Yugoslavs produced M1948BO Mausers without markings for export to Egypt and the Germans produced Kar98K Mausers from JP Sauer & Sohn in 1939 without markings.

Another model that's hard to identify is their M1943, they can be clean too.

This is one such case, but we do know they were re-doing M1893's. Additionally, the magazine floorplate is hinged at the front, an unusual improvement for those days.ДЄs I indicated, the Spanish are notorious for wiping earlier information when re-building weapons. And, the stock has a cutout for a sling bar at the butt-end on the left side. That translates to 400-2000 meters and 200-2000 meters. The M1916 I own has a 'lange' style rear sight with a 4-20 range on the side and 2-20 range on the slider part. As I've written many times before, it's cheap insurance - you don't want to fire a 7mm in a 7.62mm rifle! Unless there is a conspicuous marking by an importer (normally under the muzzle) stating the caliber, have it gauged by a competent gunsmith. It was originally chambered for 7x57mm, but many were later rechambered for 7.62mm NATO. It is the only model with that feature.Дepending on who you quote, the overall length is between 40.9' and 41.3'. It is basically a re-built Spanish M1893 done at the arsenal in Oviedo, Spain.
