I bought this
Mauser from the Bass Pro Shop in Las Vegas in 2006. I was there to
attend my first Shot Show and the Mandalay Bay Gun and Knife
show. I
saw Tom Seleck and John Milius at the Gun Show . I also met
Detrich Apel and joined the German Gun Collectors Club. He had
Tom Turpin autographing his new book on David Miller Co.
Rifle Details:
Made by Edgar Kiess in March 1941. Marked 341.
Caliber: 7x64mm
Light English walnut stock with horn buttplate.

Info thanks to Detrich Apel:
Edgar Kiess is a Suhl gunmaker who was in business since 1935 through the end of World War II. He was a small maker who was not well known.
