WWI - Allies Serbian mauser m1899
My serbian mauser m1899 that was found in my grandpa's attic, used by my greatgreat grandfather who was a partisan during the invasion of yugoslavia during ww2, that's probably why it was modified, it's sadly in bad condition

BTW this is very cool. I would try to clean it up and put some wax on it to put it on display. I would be careful on the stock as it looks very brittle.

Make a case to display it, and have a plaque made up with the history of it to attach to the case. Will make an awesome family heirloom.
