The bolt head basically grabs the cartridge as it picks it from the magazine and holds it until you eject the round. Controlled round feeding. File the back of your mag follower so the bolt will close on an empty mag. It's easy, home boy. 👍🏽
1916's are quite nice. I bought a pair of these from the old Samco imports for $100.00 each. Both are 7mm. They did need a lot of work, and they were in poor condition. They did clean up quite well.
I had one of the 7.62 N ones, at least that's what it was stamped. It had crests of the Guardia Civil on it. It kicked like a mule, but fed better than my Steyr 1912/61 does. The Oviedo worked fine on mag loaded with 5, while the Steyr only runs with 4. Abundance of gators around here lately, so I've been preoccupied with my 8mm stuff. ;)
@@BigBoyRabbit420 I'm kinda tiny for little light gun, with that much juice on it. In my long 1912/61, it's very different. :) If I handloaded for it, it was great, but not cost effective. I sold it to a longtime friend, who is into Mosin's mostly. On his 1st mauser now.
I love the m1916 in 7x57 it’s an excellent carbine great hunting rifle got a few hogs with mine and got it on video, I’m still trying to find one with the early roller coaster sights
@@texascastblast5011 heck yea! I’ve taken a few deer and several pigs. Love the 7x57. I would take an early Spanish or a Ghewer with the cool roller coaster sights!
@@joeymurphy5617 I agree I have two commercially done sporters that are amazing and are themselves an important part of American history. However when bubba tried to copy those commercial sporters THOSE have to fixed 😅
@@BigBoyRabbit420 Bolt was bent for a scope, barreled action was put into a Monte Carlo stock that had a stock comb that was too high to use the iron sights. Receiver had weaver scope bases some kind of welded on to the rifle. Rifle was set up to have a scope mounted on it but Bubba didn’t switch the safety to one of the aftermarket safeties that will clear the scope’s eye piece. It wasn’t a bad looking rifle, it was just little things that made the rifle a pain in the dick.
Been a mauser man since the beginning but never owned a 7x57. Ehhh... I dunno if its "Spanish steel" as much as its a small ring mauser. Wasn't designed for a steady ingest of commercial 308. That said, I've seen a few with commercial aftermarket barrels.
Yea the lugs an reciever just can’t handle the continuous pressures of commercial .308win. You definitely should get you a Spanish hornet. Super flat shooting an super zippy. The deer don’t run they just lay down on impact. Incredible they decided to invent the 7.92 because we all just GOTTA adopt a .30 cal

I love both configurations. Love how accurate they are. I truly haven’t noticed any undesirable recoil from either.

I had an M43 Spanish years ago that was sporterized. A sporterized rifle doesn’t bother me if it was done right. The rifle i had was not done right.
