Engraved Mauser Model 66 Rifle with Interchangeable Barrels & Fitted Case

Description:
Here is a terrific Mauser rifle that allows the user to quickly change from one caliber to another. Mauser designed their model 66 rifle so that the barrel could be removed easily and quickly by removing two bolts with the 5mm hex wrench, two included, and lift the barrel out and install the other. On the magnum barrel the bolt has to be slid off and the second one installed. The gun comes with three barrels, a 7mm magnum, 30-06 and .270. It is housed in a padded leather case with compartments to hold the barrels, stock and bolts. The 7mm barrel has a Weaver 4X scope and the other two barrels have fixed sights. Also included is an extra set of Williams scope base and rings that have never been installed. Very few of these were ever engraved making this rifle set quite rare. It was special ordered by John Klein who was the Vice-President & General Manager of Mauser-Bauer in Fraser, Michigan. They were the importer and distributor of these rifles starting in about 1970. John never fired the gun and I bought it from him and have never fired it. The gun remains in new condition. Mauser had a small quantity of these special cases made to hold the rifle and two extra barrels. This one comes with the optional canvas cover. The bolt is engraved in the germanic style with Big Horn sheep on the left side and Pronghorn Antelope on the right. The bolt handle is also engraved. The trigger guard is engraved with a mountain lion and surrounded by oak leaves. The extra bolt that can be changed in a minute is also engraved. The stock is made of fancy walnut with a rosewood grip cap and fore end. This unique rifle has been in my collection for just over 50 years and I doubt that there is another like it. I offer a three day non firing inspection period and always want the buyer to be satisfied with their purchase. The gun will be packed correctly and shipped with insurance to your FFL dealer in the continental United States for $100 (California is extra because I have to ship through my local dealer). This gun requires a C&R or FFL license for transfer. I ship the following day after the payment arrives and provide tracking information. Please see my other collectible firearms that I have listed. Thanks for your interest and please let me know if you have any questions.  Price is $8500.00 plus shipping.
