La Coruna 1944 is stamped on the receiver of this Spanish Mauser, and the seller calls that mark a selling point for collectors. The rifle is a Spanish M43 bolt-action built at Fabrica de Armas La Coruna. It is used, in 8mm Mauser, with a 28 inch barrel, a five round magazine and a blued finish.

The listing describes a strong Mauser action, a hardwood stock and honest handling wear consistent with age. That tells you what to expect: a working rifle with scratches and dents, not a pristine piece. For most buyers, that is exactly right. Many owners shoot such a rifle a few times a year and enjoy it more for being used than for sitting in a case.

The Spanish M43 comes from a time when Spain made its own Mausers after the Civil War. It uses the large-ring 98 action, and it is chambered in the 7.92x57 cartridge. Spanish arsenal marks make it of interest to collectors of European arms, particularly those who like rifles built in the middle of the war years.

It is sold as described. It ships to a licensed dealer you choose, and the background check takes place there.
