Hi
It's in 7 x 57 … Maybe a Serbian Mauser??

I thought the Serb Mausers were M1899s, not M1895s. I'm slicing the meat real thin with that distinction considering the 99 was a variant of the 95 but there is a difference.

At any rate, if it is a Serbian Mauser it should have the cartouche of the Serbian monarch (Alexander I or Peter I) on it. And if you do have a Serbian Mauser you have a prospective customer right here.

EDIT: And obviously it would have Cyrillic writing

Odds are it’s a Chilean m95 Mauser, you can find pictures easy enough to figure out if that’s what it is

Boer perhaps?

If you decide on selling her, PM me!

Boer perhaps?

Probably a Boer judging by the B prefix on the serial# on the bolt. What is the receiver serial number?

 

[mbogo3]

Mismatched bolts were common with Boer mausers as rifles were captured ,lost ,damaged or stored.

Thanks for all the great comments and read in’s
I think it is a Boer issued Mauser, the rifle serial number and bolt serial number while different seem to bear that out.
With that I’d still be interested in find out the value
Again thanks to all those that took time to add their info.

There were a bunch of Chilean 95 Mausers that were brought into the country in the last few years, they were going for ~ 400$, and were in good condition at best. If yours has a good bore, then you might get 5 - 600$ ....
