Looks a solid rifle. You could imagine this being the one rifle you'd reach in the cabinet for whether it was stalking, foxing or just enjoying some good honest time behind the trigger 🙏
My one regret with Mauser is that I sold the one that my grandfather returned from WW2 Germany with. He had an officer surrender to him and handed him his Walther and Mauser both engraved. The Mauser shot like a charm, I sold it to buy a Sako L579 in 270 Win, another tremendous rifle. But that Mauser put smiles on just looking at it. Firing it was an honour. Nice review, Mauser and Sako have sweet actions, and deadly accurate to boot.
Hi Chirs. Performance doesnt seem to be as good as your personal Mauser M12 video you posted about 2 weeks ago. I can see a bigger dispersion with this rifle. Why do you think that is? It also looks worse than the M18 Fenris video you did a year ago
No two rifles of identical specification shoot identically and regardless, the ammo is from different batches, different specifications and calibres. That is why manufacturers suggest a tolerance and not an exact group size
How do you find the M18 Burnished coating? I have been debating myself about getting a base plastic stock M18 in 6.5 x 55, I currently have an old M96 with a butchered stock I have been thinking of trading in on the M18. (In Most states in Australia we can trade a rifle for like for like without waiting for a permit to buy) As I live in Tropical Australia I am hesitant about buying non stainless rifles.
Hi Chris I just bought the standard version of this rifle and was wondering what ammunition it liked best ? I do understand that no two rifles are identical but it would be a good place to start from thanks
Hi Chris, I know that I have asked this before, but, forgive an old fart. What is the cause and how can you correct for bolt handle movement during discharge? Keith.
@@chrisparkin431 yeah it usually costs a bit and requires a gunsmith to do. I live in NZ though so we are known to be living about 30 years behind the world 😅 VERY good news for me so thank you

HUGE mistake !!!!
Probably the biggest mistake of your life there bud. Grandad probably rolled over in his grave for that one…
Lovely gun Chris. Wait for the complaints about laying the rifle upside down on the scope 😂😂.
Great Rifle the Mauser M18 , Great Review Chris 💯💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Looks stunning!
I was gutted when I shouldered the M18 and it didn’t feel right, it was the synthetic with hollow stock, really decent price point .
Great looking rifle.
Can you confirm that the trigger and trigger housing are made from plastic? Cheers.

A bedding job could also improve accuracy
The 223 here in Australia anyway has a single stack magazine and will not top load through the rifle
@@garybalasa3158 the 223 is a Single stack yes
very good review!

@@vintagetintrader1062 we have a far incomparable climate but the rifles i have had in the UK have done fine but perhaps not as hard a life
Great videos Chris.
Will you be reviewing the Minox RS-4?
@@matthewanderson2982 I did it for a magazine, TH-cam scope videos earn nothing I'm afraid
@@chrisparkin431 No worries Chris I’ll see if I can find it. Do you know if the RS-4 line is actually made in Germany?
Hello Chris! Is the trigger and bolt shroud made of metal or polymer?
trigger steel, bolt/shroud polymer
@@chrisparkin431 Thank you for the quick answer Chris!
Hi Chris I just bought the standard version of this rifle and was wondering what ammunition it liked best ? I do understand that no two rifles are identical but it would be a good place to start from thanks
I used what was seen in the video
Looks to be very similar to a Sauer 100. What would you say are the major differences?
They are practically the same rifle.
Wot mod was you using Chris
Hi Chris, I know that I have asked this before, but, forgive an old fart. What is the cause and how can you correct for bolt handle movement during discharge?
Keith.
Get a tight blueprinted action and not a sporting rifle if you feel it's costing you😉
Man, you should make a review on one of the expensive mauser 98 models
I shall ask
@@chrisparkin431 appreciate it
How can I get one in the USA?
Dear Chris, this is better rifle than tikka t3x ?
Thanks
@@MilanRadojicic-rm7ts I don't own or review any T3's much as I try to get one
@@chrisparkin431 Thanks for your reply.
I'm not sure, this Mauser, cz 600 lux or sauer 100, Overall impression ?
@@MilanRadojicic-rm7ts you don't mention what calibre, what for or in what format
@@chrisparkin431 One rifle, universal rifle, shooting at longer distances, 30.06. spr
I wish you can make a review for Haenel Jaeger NXT.
I have, look at my videos
@@chrisparkin431 oh sorry.! Did you make a Part 2 of Pard 007sp night vision?
.....another cheap-to-manufacture gruesome round bottom action, I commend you on your videos for sharing views of the action, Thank You Sir.
Feel free to spend more if you want
wait so these have free floating barrels?

@@kev1734 yes, is that somehow unusual?

Can you get this rifle in 8 MM?
Hello.The trigger guard is steel or synthetic???
Watch the video
@@chrisparkin431I watch the video and stopped and play it again, but i didnt saw the trigger guard material.. Só please answer me. Steel or synthetic
@@TheSzteroid it's polymer, just as described in the video
I'm sure about that recoil lug
Name of the suppressor?
Sauer
Soon soon, some company will be making bottom metal replacements for these
@@jonathanmitchell3733 why do they need to?
