Spanish Mauser Carbine Model 1916 bolt action 7mm Mauser with sling Spanish Civil War Spain SCW
This is a Spanish Mauser Carbine Model 1916 in 7mm Mauser. It was manufactured at the Oviedo Arsenal. Oviedo is the capitol an Asturias in northwestern Spain. The Model 1916 was a development of the Spanish Model 1893. Being manufactured in 1926, in all probability, this rifle was used during the Spanish Civil War.
There is a very faint number stamped on the bolt so I cannot say that the bolt has matching numbers. The cleaning rod is present and the rifle comes with a proper sling. The rifle has handling marks that would be associated with a 97 year old military rifle. You can see where the stock was used to help disassemble the bolt.
