New Military Mauser Contour Barrels?
« on: March 21, 2007, 12:01:02 PM »
Does anyone know of any barrel maker who offers new barrels in the military mauser contour? 

I've only been able to find some makers who would duplicate customer's barrel contour for a hefty additional fee.  It strikes me that there are so many mil surp mausers out there with shot out/corroded barrels that it would be a great thing.  Such calibers could include 6.5x55, 7x57, 8x57 as well as 9.3x57, 9x57r, or whateve.  Personally I like stock military mausers with nothing more than bent bolts, and drilled and tapped for scopes rather than the whold "sporterizing" routine, which leaves many wonderful rifles looking like butchered cripples.

A couple of years ago I saw .308 new milsupr mauser barrels at a gun show. They were for "Israeli" mausers or something.

Numrich carries them. Go to google and type that in. Then go to the esction for models and type in which gun you want the barrel for and you can scroll down to whatever part you want, including barrels.

I checked Numrich and they only have a few selections. 

I was not referring to mil-supr barrels, but to new mfgr.  It seems as though there are so many mausers floating around  out there that a manufacturer could make a run of new barrels with mauser contours and sell them pretty easily.
