trying to figure out all the proof markings that are eluding me in my mauser book. Any help appreciated.

just picked this up for $200 but since ammo is non-existent, will be listing it on AA or GB. just couldn't pass on owning it even if only for a few weeks

Try to delet the [img] next to your photos please... Also there is always a way to be able to find ammo for that fire arm.. Have you tried a Google Search or gunbroker.com ?

I really want to help you find ammo for this firearm.

Or you can buy brass an then buy a mold an build your own ammo... Might be a little bit cheaper...

P.s. looks like you are gonna have to start reloading your own ammo.... 11mm mauser is also known as 43 masuer

Likewise. Those idiots listed my 74 year-old mother as bisexual. I won't be giving them any of my personal information.
