I started with a old 93 Mauser Action and a 98 Mauser Stock that needed love. The stock must had been fitted to a action that had a bull barrel. I had to add wood to top of forearm area. This left a seam because the forearm had a radius to it, I inletted over the top of this seam with pie shape pieces of maple, over the pie shape pieces I put scholl design pieces. This covered the seam. In total there were 97 pieces inlaid. The stock being made for a 98 action meant fitting the 93 action to it. I had to do more camoflaging where the trigger guard would fit it. also a lot of inletting work for the action area. For bedding I used JB Weld. Grip cap and fore end piece were also added.
Next was a little engraving on action and trigger and floorplate.
A ball bearing trigger was made for it with lots of help from a member. The trigger really help to lighten the trigger pull. One other member also had a bolt altered for scope use he sold to me. A Timney Low Scope Safety was also added. Barrel is a Rhindland
This is what I ended up with.
