M not sure I would say best Mauser ever, but it’s very nice and a hard rifle to get. Congrats!

Very nice!

Nice! I have one of it's big brothers in mint shape.

When I read the title, I was going to say that those are incredibly rare rifles. Even more so in their original configuration.

I've read that because of their short length, a lot of them were sporterized and converted into hunting rifles.

How's it shoot? The only time I ever shot mine it gave me a real tight group at 100m.

I'm a sucker for Mausers and a sucker for carbines, so this one has me very intrigued. Very nice rifle!

It is missing its cleaning rod and the first barrel band spring. I am told that both are commonly available, but I need advice on tracking down these bits.

 

[Claven2]

band spring should be the same as any common south american 98 - like the brazilian 1908 or argentine 1909. maybe check marstar or GPC.
