I recently acquired a Mauser ES340B...well, most of one.
Its missing the stock, trigger guard, and buttplate. Everything else is there and actually in really good condition. The plan is to get it back on the range without having to fabricate my own stock and trigger guard. If it comes to that, I will, but I would like to see if anyone here has a lead on the few things I need.
I found a company (Gunville) that supposedly has repro stocks for this rifle. Shot an email over to them and have yet to hear back. Still figured I would ask here if anyone has ever heard of them or done business with them. Good? Bad? Ugly? This is their website.

The trigger guard is the big issue for me. I cant seem to find anywhere online selling parts for these rifles. I found one guy who makes replacement action screws (which I have on order). Thats about it. Not much info to be found other than people asking "what is my rifle?"
If anyone has a lead on a secret stash of parts for this rifle I would be happier than a pig in the mud. Thank you to anyone who can point me in the right direction! Even if that direction ends up being hours spent in my garage making my own parts lol.
One other question: Does anyone here have a copy of the book Mauser Smallbores by Jon Speed??? I wanted to see if I can ask a few questions and figure out the mfg date of this rifle by the serial number. That book may help, but they are selling for over $200 online and I cant justify spending that just to see if there are mfg dates by serial numbers.
Thanks again to anyone who may be able to help! Or if you just want to tell me about your own mauser 22 rifles feel free to.
