Custom mauser

[parrott1969]

I just picked up a custom mauser in 35 whelen off gun broker for $475 to my door. Owner said it has less than 50 rounds through it.

Here is the description

PRICE REDUCED!!! Beautiful 35 Whelen on a 1908 Brazilian Mauser action. 24" E.R. Shaw barrel, glass bedded into a walnut stock with beautiful, swirling figure in the butt. Timney trigger, Dayton/Traister Mark II safety, release button in the floor plate. Redfield base, Leupold rings and 1983 vintage Redfield 4X scope included. RCBS dies, 104 rounds of R-P brass and Hornady 250 gr. Interlocks. Nylon sling also added. All for $475.00 shipped to ConUS

So how did I do?:kidding:

With less than fifty rounds shot, it is still a new rifle.

You couldn't build one to match it fo that amount, I think you did very well.

thats a very good deal !

[swheeler]

Very nice and should make you a sweet cast bullet hunting rifle!

[Char-Gar]

If the work is good, it is a smoking deal. I would cost about twice that price to put it all together yourself.

I have been corresponding with the owner, poor guy is selling it due to arthritis of the shoulder. Says he can not take the recoil. He has even sweetened the deal by adding even more reloading related components and literature. Seems like he is throwing in everything Whelen related. I will be sleeping with the dogs when my wife finds out. At least she is nice and fuzzy this time of year.

I know some guys who think the .35 Whelen is the "only" caliber, seems to be a natural with lead, they got "smokin" deals also, but not as good a deal as yours. Good job!!

Good parts, nice wood ... what's not to like?

Enjoy a good deal!
