That is one nice rifle. I would love to find one that nice for that good of a price. I had a KKW 22LR about 12 years ago. I wish I had that one back. The stock was broken off at the front. I did not know it was a WWII duffull bag gun until years latter. Live and learn.

That is a nice rifle and Mitchells or not if you're happy with it then that is all that matters. If you want one of the finest Mausers made look at the Swede. 6.5x55 is a great caliber. I may be biased because I have one but don't over look them they are super quality and as Sweden never fought a hot war they had the luxury of making good quality builds without the war time exigencies. Same applies to the Swiss rifles as well.

These are photos of my bnz 44 (large font) serial number 99 rifle that I purchased from an older gentlemen. I believe it is a bring back, but I don't have the paper work. The original stock was sporterized (I have it) and I believe the germans stained it to make it dark compared with the replacement stock I have.
