Brand-new is how the seller describes this Mitchel Mauser 48 in 8mm, though the condition on file reads used, so confirm the details with your dealer. The rifle has a 24 inch barrel, a four round magazine, a black finish and a wood stock, and it is chambered in 8mm Mauser.

Mitchell's Mausers sold many rebuilt and imported Yugoslav 48 rifles in the United States. The 48 is a post-war version of the German Mauser 98 action, shorter and handier than the full-size infantry rifles, and it earned the nickname of the last Mauser. The action is strong and dependable.

An 8mm Mauser has enough power for deer, hogs and black bear at woods ranges. It is also a fine surplus plinker with the right ammunition. Make sure the ammunition matches the bore size of the rifle, because the old and new 8mm loads are not interchangeable in every case.

At this price you pay for a clean rifle, so inspect it carefully when it arrives. Compare the photos with what you receive.

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