I need help

[mike28003]

I have got a rifle from my grandfather after he passed a few years ago and i am just now trying to do some research on it so any help would be graetly appretiated. I was informed it was a Mauser, and from what very little i know about Mausers looking ant the bolt it does appear to be one but thats as far as i know.the only markings on the rifle are fabrica de armas oviedo 1909 any help here please.there is a stamp on it and it looks like a crown but i cant tell because of wear.

Could be an '09 Argentine. Photos would help, particularly closeups of the markings.

Pictures are worth a thousand words, especially when trying to identify a gun. Having a serial number could also help out.

Probably a Spanish 1893. Not a whole lot of other options for that crest. It's a small ring mauser and is usually chambered in 7x57 mauser.

Sounds like a Spanish 7mm Model 1893 Mauser to me.
