Saw a "mystery Mauser" at an on-line estate sale last month. One picture and a description that said simply "7 x 57". Intrigue got the better of judgement and I bought it.

The mystery Mauser finally arrived--Brno VZ 12/33 in the form of a Brazilian 08/34 in the original 7mm. All matching and in great shape. Metal and bore excellent, wood pretty good.

I'm not much into Mousers, ( I only have a 1891/12 Peruvian & should sell it) but that's a keeper!!! Sometimes the 'mystery' buys can turn out sweet! SW

Saw this on another board and it looks very good. That would fit nicely in my small collection as I have a few Czech made rifles.

I didn't realize that Brazil had purchased Mausers from BRNO until I started looking into what this might be. Not much about these rifles in Ball's MMRotW.

Ball does get a little confusing as in the same section under the picture he states it is the same as the 16/33 model when it is the 12/33 as the VZ 33 (16/33) is a short carbine.

I know one thing I would like to find one.

Now Hogger, why would you want to rid yourself of the Peruvian?
Does she not shoot well?

No, I likes it fine - I am lusting for more I-talian stuff & should sell off some rifles I just don't shoot. SW

Mausers just have such nice lines. I've always liked thelooks of them, but I've sold almost every one I've owned, I just don't like the sights. I found a 1908 Brazilian mauser at a local shop, but he wants 375 for it. I thought it might be a nice addition to my bayonet :lol but not at that price. I wouldn't mind having a 7mm mauser tho.

Trade a rifle for a portrait of dear, sweeeeeeet Britney? Say! The only question remaining is how long I would survive to enjoy it. :crzy: SW
