*GRIFFIN & HOWE SQUARE BRIDGE MAUSER WITH SCOPE.

SN 1070. Cal. 7mm Remington Mag. 24″ Medium weight round sporter bbl is fitted with typical sleeved-on sling eye, and ramp front sight base. Top of bbl is engraved “No. 1070 GRIFFIN & HOWE INC. NEW YORK”. Caliber is engraved at rear. Standard length commercial Mauser square bridge action has had receiver ring stippled, G & H scope base fitted on left side, and portion of bridge cutaway to clear staff of Lyman 48 receiver sight. Bolt body is polished and damascened, and bolt handle forged low to clear scope, knob checkered. A Mauser logo is visible on bolt root. Bottom metal with hinged floorplate, has release button in trigger guard bow. It appears that this rifle left G & H in the 1930’s as a 7mm Mauser. Sometime during the 1950’s or 1960’s it was converted to 7mm Remington Mag, and scope installed. A Canjar set trigger with thumb safety at right side of tang, was installed along with an FN type bolt shroud. The quality of this work is very fine, and most likely done at G & H. Well marbled, dense European walnut full capped pistol grip stock with Whelen type right hand shadow line cheekpiece features Silver type pad, sling eye and vacant silver oval on toe line, horn forend tip, engraved recoil bolt, and classic point pattern wraparound checkering at grip and forend. Redfield 2 – 7 X scope with duplex reticle is in alloy side mount marked “GRIFFIN & HOWE INC. NEW YORK”. Weight with scope: 9 lbs. 4 oz. LOP: 14″. CONDITION: Excellent, as refinished. Metal retains nearly all of a correctly colored, shiny rust blue. Stock retains nearly all of a dull rubbed oil finish with one or two light marks, checkering slightly worn and has not been re-cut. Bore is excellent, shiny, with strong rifling throughout, with slight erosion at throat. Action is smooth. Set trigger works. Staff of Lyman 48 has top portion cutaway to clear scope. Scope is excellent, optically clear. 4-50172 MGM128 (3,000-5,000) – Lot 3449
