Barrel markings, pre-WWII GECO Mauser rifle? - 09/10/19 12:41 AM
38 Si 116
&
Si 116
Cannot be a proof date of Jan 1916 based on the Waffenamts
1938 could be a proof date but there is no month.
Another possibility is the 116th gun proofed in 1938, but what is the "Si"?
Any information appreciated!
Here are the pics from my post on Gunboards.
