Mauser M12 rifle

Just buy it....my review not good enough... ;) ..been used by a few clients and all liked it a lot....only issue as I put on a different thread is the synthetic stock in humid climates.....if not kept ventilated the stock degrades and goes sticky..mauser acknowledge this and sent me a new stock....now make sure it has plenty ventilation....but wood stock obviously wouldn't have this issue...same if your climate doesn't have serious heat with humidity which is the main issue....think heat alone it be fine....plenty others here have given it a good review....so if you don't believe us..... :E Shrug: ....and not sure about putting hands on at dsc as they didn't have in the booth at sci this year....not sure if actually sell it in usa now...could be wrong

Do you mind posting some photos of yours?

I’ll go ahead and take it then since you speak so highly of it. Just need to get rid of a rifle to make room for it in the safe.

That's a fine looking M.98!
 
I have an M12 in 30-06, with a walnut stock and open sights. The balance and handling are phenomenal, the trigger is amazing, the sights are top notch, and it’s accurate!

I have plenty of other rifles but my M12 is never going anywhere.
 
I have two
One in 7mmRM with thumbhole, and i did a improvement, this with two Leica scopes, 3.5-14x42 and 2.4-16x56
The other in 338wm muzzle break with a Leica 1.5-10x42

I have an M12 in 6.5x55 and it has become one of my favourite rifles. It is fitted with a 3-9x36 Swarovski with #4 reticle to keep the Euro feel. It shoots every bullet bar one (140gn Speer) into under an inch at 100m straight out of the box. No fiddling with bedding or trigger, just clean, add scope and shoot. I have always been a .257 Roberts fan but I have been carrying this rifle a fair bit over the past couple of years.

Everyone always thinks about the worst thing that can happen, maybe ask yourself what's the best outcome that could happen?
