With the exception of the few that we have sold recently, and the one sitting in my safe it has probably been 10 or 12 years since the last time I saw a Persian Mauser. They have always been very rare and to my knowledge all importable quantities have been dried up for a long time now. This small exclusive lot was part of the recent Samco liquidation. We sold some of the nicer ones recently at a higher price point than this and they literally flew out the door. Well the very goods and excellent\'s are gone now but what we have here are the Goods, Good Cracked, and Fair condition rifles that were left in the lot. I would encourage you to see the accompaning video for full details. Many of these goods could probably clean up to very good with just a little elbow grease and all should be good shooters. The price of these rifles has been adjusted to reflect the current condition of this lot. Expect there to be some some pitting on the barrels, but they should still be in shootable condition.Note - The re-number for the U.S. serial # on these was done very discreetly and is not obtrusive on the rifle. The importer stamp is the same way being on the end of the barrel in a light dot matrix very small print. I actually had to put my reading glasses on to find it.
