    Interesting, I've got an 1897 cock on closing sporting conversion Mauser that has the Orange Free State markings on the receiver: 7x57 calibre.

    Nice little rifle. With the sling attachment at the wrist and front sight I’d guess that it was a carbine too- not a converted rifle. (Much rarer)
