You should know better by now; pics pics pics. Or at least a much better description.

If it's a 71/84, it shouldn't be 410 - it should be 43 Mauser.

+1 to Killer kanuck - I have 3 of the Model 71 variants, the first a Model 71 carbine single-shot in .43 Mauser, and the other two 71/84 repeaters in .43 Mauser, one a rifle and one a carbine.

Is the one that you have actually MARKED as .410???

Just had a brain fart - correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't some of these bought and modded by Quebec for some sort of home guard during WWI?

Never mind - those conversions were still 43.

Lots of Mausers were modified into shotguns of all guages.

Sounds like a Mauser m71/84 converted to a bolt action 410.
