    Vegar, think more South to your East.

    Obergrenadier, thats to far in the east.

    To both it is not a Mauser.

    Hi Lady Prime,

    not bad! The Stutzen 95 is a good base for searching and one of the engineers of this rifle was a one of the makers of my rifle!

    Austria is a hot hint and its a part of a former known imperial country
