MODEL 1933 Ethiopian Mauser
A super rare Mauser 1933 rifle made for Abyssinian Empire. This Model 1933 rifle features all markings like the Abyssinian Crest on top of the receiver and the Lion of Juda on the left side of the receiver. These rifles were never imported before to the US. Only a extreme small quantity is available. The condition is fair. Please take a look at the pictures.
The history behind these rifles is pretty amazing. Germany gave Ethiopia a grant for various military products. It is said that Hitler himself gave the order. Germany delivered 10,000 Mauser rifles to Ethiopia. These were the 1933 Mauser Model and the 1934 Standard Mauser rifles. Hurry!. These is only a small quantity left. Once they are gone there will be no more ever!!!
* About the Grading -The rifles have dents, dings, scrapes, gouges, discoloration and possible small cracks in the stocks. You can also expect anywhere from minimal bluing wear to a lot of bluing wear, and we have even seen some surface rust on a few. We have not seen any rust that would not clean up well. We do offer a hand select for cosmetics that will offer you one of the nicer looking ones if that is your desire but please know that even a hand select is not going to be gorgeous.... just one of the better ones in the group.
Now for the good news, as we said before these rifles have been stored intact in a military depot for quite some time. As such, they are as close to true military turn in Mauser rifles as I have ever seen. By that I mean that they do not appear to be parted together " Frankenstein " guns. Also know, that while we do not guarantee for matching numbers we have seen some that do match. In addition to that, these are very consistent in color and as a group have a certain uniformity about them that makes them appear to be true military turn in's which I am certain that they are. As a matter of fact, in that manner they are very similar to our Chinese military turn in SKS rifles.
We do not warranty for cosmetic's as we have tried to be as honest as possible in describing these rifles. As such, if the possibility of receiving a rifle that is less than a beauty queen is a deal breaker, then don't order one. However, we do warranty them for function and we think that they are a tremendous value as they are as close to military turn-in's as we have ever seen for long stored Mauser's.
Don't let my overly honest description of the rifles fool you. We always try to allow for the lower end in the bunch when describing our surplus because let's face it, someone is going to get the ugliest one there. Having said that, these rifles have not been as readily available in the U.S. marketplace for several years now and we are proud to be able to offer them at what we think is a fantastic price. Get yours today.
No Mauser collection is complete without the addition of one of these rare 1933 Ethiopian Musers. .... Don't Miss This.......C & R Eligible
Important - As noted above these are arsenal turn in rifles and while we have done a dry function test here before shipping, the rifles have not had the bores cleaned nor have they been checked by a gunsmith. As with all surplus firearms the rifle should be thoroughly cleaned before firing. Also, please be sure that the bore is clear and unobstructed. Finally, a good rule of thumb with any surplus is to have your local gunsmith do a safety check before attempting to fire.
C&R OR FFL REQUIRED
