    I have been trying to find details about this rifle I was recently gifted, but not finding alot out there. Figured I might have the best luck here. It has Mashburn Arms on the barrel and appears to be in .250 Savage. Looks like a mauser action, with a model M1905 on top? Also has a set of double triggers with a Mannlicher stock. Would anybody have more information on this rifle? Are they collectible or probably better use a deer rifle? Appreciate any advice or history you can share!

    from what I can find, Mashburn seemed to be a fairly well regarded gun smith out of Oklahoma, making mostly nice bolt actions in interesting calibers.

    Looks like a real piece of junk. I’ll give you $100 for it.


    In all seriousness, I don’t know what it is, but it’s gorgeous! Take it out and shoot it. Some of those older “sporterized” rifles when done correctly, are real shooters.

    Good deal, might be able to get me two boxes of 9mm :laugh:. The craftsmanship is pretty neat, it has alot of character along with some nicks. The scope mount bases look unique though so I might have to look a bit to find them. Never shot 250 savage before and looking forward to it!
