A cross stamped on the receiver of a German Mauser K98k means that it was a Russian Capture rifle.
Depends on the state the rifle is in and where it was obtained. Please contact me at shikimaa@yahoo.com to discuss it.
More information is necessary. If the rifle has a 4-lug bolt head, it is the same as a Mossberg 810. Research the 810 for info on this rifle. It may be made on FN Mauser 98 actions, in which case it will be like any other Mauser 98 sporter. Otherwise, it will be German made by Heym and is either the same as a Mauser 2000 or Mauser 3000 action. The scope, on the other hand, is almost impossible to describe these days. It will likely have Japanese optics.
It may not even fit an 1891 Mauser. Bolts are not a "drop in" part- they may require fitting (headspacing) to that individual rifle. That is where a gunsmith earns his pay.
"Rifle" in German is Gewehr

A Mauser!
The '95 Chilean Mauser is chambered for 7mm Mauser. There may be surplus military ammunition still floating around from Cheaper Than Dirt or other sources and the round is still loaded commercially.
Could be worth up to $500 for an immaculate, all matching rifle. It replace the Mauser Model 1871, used a 7.65x53 round nosed cartridge, variants of the rifle were also adopted by Turkey and throughout most of South America.
