<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GinoLR, post: 8271294, member: 128351&quot;]I don&#039;t own any functioning firearm, but we keep an old WW1 relic, a German Mauser rifle. It was brought back as a souvenir by my wife&#039;s grandfather who was a lieutenant during this war, not in the German but in the French army. He passed away in the 1980s and nobody knows where precisely he took it (in Verdun, perhaps?), and why he brought it home. He kept it hidden in his garage since, even hidden from the Germans during the 1940-1944 occupation (he lived in Normandy). It seems he never had any ammunition for this rifle, which very probably did not fire a single shot since WW1. There is an inscription : Waffenfabrik / Mauser A-G / Oberndorf A/N / 1915.</p><p>It is completely rusted, I do not know if it is possible to clean it and take that rust away. It has very probably never been demilitarized or rechambered. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1459836[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1459837[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1459838[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
