I am trying to reduce my gun collection. There are a number of pieces that I have no idea of value. I am lucky if I know what they are.
I would appreciate it if you could chime in with a better explanation of what these are and a fair value for EE.
This is one of two 1988 Commission rifles I have. The other is what I consider the more original style, with a light metal jacket around the barrel. This one has been reworked to look more like a 1898 Mauser. Both have the .321 barrels. Both have been refurbed by the Turks. This one is marked ANKARA 1939. I cannot find the other at this moment.
This a very nice 8mm Mauser with a clear Spanish Air Force crest on the receiver. The nice thing about being a neutral country is that the Spanish rifles did not get used much. This one at in a guard house, somewhere.
This is a Snyder marked 1867, the year of confederation. I actually used this in a DCRA Snyder match about 40 years ago. I would say it is in good condition.
All I know about this Carcano is that it is a rifle (not a carbine), it is 6.5mm and that it is marked Terni.
This rifle is a real mystery to me. It is a Japanese made Mauser with an Arisaka type dustcover. It is some flavour of 8mm, but I have no idea of which. A 8mm MS does not chamber in it.
