  1. I am brand new to this forum and new to the mauser scene. I was given an old mauser, and am kind of interested in using the action in a custom gun. However, not knowing much about this particular rifle, I thought it might be wise to seek some advice before tearing into the action. Here are some of the specs: - starting with the obvious, the left side of the receiver is stamped "Mod. 98"; - on that same side, more towards the barrel, there is a very small Nazi eagle holding the swastika and a parts stamp ("1104" with what looks like a "g" just below it); - on top of the receiver towards the barrel there is another eagle holding a swastika and the number "234" under it, below that in larger letters in "duv", and then an inch below that is the number "42". All parts have matching numbers. The stock was cut off just above the collar that holds the gun strap. The action appears to be in great shape and is super smooth. Should I modify this rifle or is there some reason you would advise against it. Thanks in advance for your help.
