They made a big splash in the magazine covers a few years back. Then they fizzled. From all accounts they were extremely nice rifles, but I've never seen one in person.

the rifle is a Mauser 96 strait pull. it has an AR-15 type rotating bolt.
looks like it's never been shot has box. And 3x9 Redfield scope on it.

Do you perhaps mean a model 66 with the telescoping bolt, not really a straight pull is it? There's also an upgraded version the 86.

Box says it's a Mauser model 96 strait pull. Does not seem to be that old of a rifle.
It's not a Milatary rifle its a sporting rifle.. Jeff

Well, at least the bolt handle won't hit your knuckles!

I had one, a .30-06. It was very accurate, nicely light, and acceptably well made. That *^^&*(^ bolt handle though, was always in the way, carrying, or storing, and was too far forward for fast repeat shots. I killed a couple of mule deer with it, then sold it to finance a CZ452. Still got the CZ.
