Mauser invented the bolt-action rifle in the late nineteenth century, and all bolt action designs are derived from the Mauser design (the US government had to pay Mauser a royalty for the design of the M1903 Springfield rifle). During the twentieth century the Mauser Model 98 rifle was manufactured under license by perhaps 20 or 30 countries. Quite literally tens of millions of Mauser model 98 rifles were made, and are still available to (mostly American) collectors. I just received a German k98 Mauser rifle this week via UPS. It's sitting against the desk next to me.
