I had a good friend that has one that has been passed down for three generations.  It is an old mauser action and has been used since the 1940's.  On the stock they have scratched in how many elk, deer, bear, and cougar have been shot with the rifle.  There were a ton of hashmarks.  What a neat historical piece for the family.
