Picked this up at a show today. It has the dual trigger guards and lever behind the guards for break open. This has nicely re-blued barrels, with one repair behind the receiver on the wood and very tight lockup. Does anybody know an approximate value? I paid $200.00 just because it has the unique triggers and lever.I also picked up a Mauser 98 in 30-06. This was made from the newer M420 wood stock and a excellent condition 1937 Nazi proof receiver and newer bolt for 30-06. The Barrel is a very nice Parker-Hale with open sites. Any idea's on this for price?? I paid $150.00 This would make a very nice hunting rifle..

    Thanks for the info Captain. I am not sure if the Mauser is a Parker Hale. It only has Parker Hale on the barrel and sites. The receiver has Nazi military pheonix(s) and one British Nitro Proof mark. It has only Model 98 on the left side of the receiver. The long slide on the right is jeweled as is the bolt release lever face. I beleive the serial # on the bolt is the same as the receiver 567, but the 567 on the receiver has been overstruck with other numbers and a cursive "s" under that. On the top of the recever is another Nazi military pheonix and swastika with the cursive ee underneath and the number 43 in big script under that. It is very confusing, but is in very nice shape. I may just keep this one instead of putting it on the table at the next show.
