Hey guys I've got this 7x57 I've had for nearly 20 years. I hunted with it for about 15 yrs or so and no longer have a need for it. I don't know a lot about collector value and to be honest I'm not into collecting mausers. I want to trade for a bow I can hunt with so my question is what realistically should I value the gun?
It is sporterized and not the original stock. Holds 4 shells with trap door on the bottom. Has some pitting I guess is what you would call it.

Their about worth what a guy is willing to pay for the action to build on.

it's a small ring, probably spanish 93, which doesn't help it. they're not sought after like the swede 96s. it's pretty rough as it sits. i've paid $100 for similar. the small ring hinged triggerguard is probably the best piece. I bought two rough ones for $79 a piece two years ago just for the bottom metal.

I like the 93's. :tup:
