New old Mauser 98 and questions
My dad has three Mauser 98s. Two are Yugo 44 refurbs. All are in excellent condition from his fathers old extensive gun collection. The one I am looking at is a true German with mostly matching mostly matching numbers and the off ones match each other. It is a 1936 with a manufacturing code of S/42(I looked it up earlier and found the factory), has lots of eagle marks on many of the plates, but has two markings I am confused about.
The first is "Kal 7.62 M/M"
The second is one of the serial numbers on the upper is "FLY-the number-"
I assume(not fired) the 7.62 part means its chambered in 7.62, although the tag on the rifle when it was on sale at grandad's shop says 30-06.
Were any originals chambered in 7.62? What kind of 7.62 would it fire? x54, x51, etc.?
