![]() They all have very common features and dimensions, but they are definitely not all the same. The "Model 1935" bayonets are anything but standard. This is known as the "Model 1935" Turkish Bayonet. "Model 1938" was never an actual Turkish designation.Īlong with standardizing the rifles, Turkey also came up with a "standard bayonet". This model name was assigned by the US firearms companies that began importing the surplus Turkish Mausers starting in the 1970's. This configuration is known today as the "Model 1938". The benefit of a red dot is that it will clear a suppressor at the muzzle.In the mid-1930's, Turkey started a program of rebuilding and converting all of their existing rifles to fire the new 8mm rifle round, and at the same time they standardized all of the Mausers to one standard Turkish configuration. I’m not sure if I will be installing original Mauser sights, or if I am going to run a small red-dot. I still have to come up with a solution for a sight. The barrel, removed from the receiver and cut to 16.5″. Then, with the barrel removed, I cut the barrel down to 16.5″ so I could make a mock-up of the rifle with a 16.25 barrel. After carefully rigging the received in a vice, I added a cheater bar to the now 90 angled barrel, and broke the barrel free, easier as I had expected. Once the barrel was nice and hot, I bent the barrel 90 degrees, to ease the removal process. I soaked the threads overnight with Mouse Milk, and heated a section of the barrel to red hot, about 6″ from the muzzle. I decided to remove the shot out barrel from the receiver. a German/Turkish based abdomination of a DeLisle? William De Lisle will roll over in his grave if he finds out… No action noise and a short and handy subsonic pistol caliber rifle. And of course with my AAC Ti-Rant 45 suppressor on the way, I couldn’t think of a better project. Fed by a 1911 magazine seated in an adapter, the gun features a 16.25″ barrel, and an extended ejector. I started off with a shot out M38 Turkish Mauser, I had rescued from an ATI plastic sniper stock, and a sporterized 98K stock I found on eBay.Īfter that, the project pretty much sat idle in my safe, awaiting time and money to continue.Īnd then I ran across Rhineland Arms, who sells a kit to convert a 98 Mauser into. Mauser project revisited, with a new spin!įor a while now, I’ve had the urge of SBRing a Mauser, and cutting the barrel to 7″, turning it into an evil spirits defying flame-thrower/car alarm setter-offer. ![]()
