Gun and gear reviews Mini Mauser

Post image

Any thoughts on this? I just saw Adriel’s, AKA hunting gear guy, review on this.

Looks… fine? Has anyone shot this thang yet? Please share some experience on accuracy and reliability.

Thanks in advance.

Bolt is really rough- feels like its machined using a dremel. The trigger is not bad, but the bolt is really not smooth

Also the wood is not nice; its softwood stained to look like hardwood. It scratches pretty easy. Im a sucker for good wood so i was dissapointed

It's a CZ452 action which are notoriously rough. Luckily there are a lot of guides out there for polishing the working surfaces and greatly improving them
