Yugoslavian Model 99C Mauser Bolt Action Rifle, #11692, 8x57mm cal., 23.3'' barrel, blued finish, hardwood stock, inverted ''V'' front sight and adjustable tangent rear sight, with cleaning rod. Marked on receiver ring with royal Yugoslavian crest over Cyrillic ''MOAEN 1899C''. Originally in 7x57mm cal., rifle has been arsenal converted into its current configuration by re-chambering to 8x57mm cal., shortening the barrel, and replacing the stock. Bolt and receiver remain the earlier M1895 type. Mismatched numbers. Right side of buttstock has three large five-pointed stars carved into the wood. Condition overall is very good, with metal surfaces retaining less than 30% finish, the balance worn bright. There is an open crack on the rear of the handguard, otherwise wood is good with an even color and old and new handling marks. Action is smooth, bore is good with darkening in the grooves and worn rifling. No visible import marks. Est.: $400-$600. (C&R)
