Not sure where to begin
« on: February 04, 2017, 03:17:01 AM »
I was just gifted a rifle that I think is a 1871 Mauser but I'm not certain. Would love help in identifying it. Where do I begin?

It is best to provide some pictures of the over rifle both sides and then detailed pictures of all markings. Use several post if necessary.
