The Mauser 98 Interview with Larry Potterfield | The Mauser 98 Project
This video details the intricate process of sporterizing a Mauser 98 military rifle into a high-end custom hunting rifle. Larry Potterfield explains how the reliable Mauser action serves as the foundation, with original components often replaced by custom parts for improved aesthetics and function. Key modifications include a swept-back bolt handle, a three-position safety, a hinged floor plate, and a custom English walnut stock, culminating in a .257 Roberts chambered barrel with a traditional rust blue finish.
