Here is a rare 1937 VZ 12/33 mountain Mauser carbine rifle. I found this Rifle on an auction site and knew I had to have it to bring it back to life again. Only 25,311 were ever made until they changed the variant that led to the Gewehr 33/40. I really enjoyed this challenge and learning a little history along the way.

My grandfather was a gunsmith who took many cheap, military surplus Mauser rifles and converted them to sporters. I remember him telling me - "The Mauser 98 action is the best there is". I have both restored military rifles and built custom long-range rifles from a surplus M98 action. Re-chambering a Mauser is very simple with the extractor cut relief in the action and not cut into the barrel. The historic Model 98 action was the basis for the Springfield M1903, the Winchester M70, and the Remington 700. The Mauser brothers Paul and Wilhelm probably did not know at the time that they designed an action that would last more than a century.
Very cool, thanks for all the info I enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
These Czech Mausers from the mid-30s are sweet. Excellent metalurgy, great barrels, slick actions and nice 2 stage triggers.
You know your stuff, thanks for watching!
When he got the gun it was worthless and whoever did that job before this gentleman got it was bad he actually restored the rifle to make it look beautiful and glow again!!!🎉
Thank you very much for the kind words and thanks for watching!
Snapping the bolt back together is the most satisfying sound.
Ya for sure! Thanks for watching
Thank you for showing the bore as part of the process! Yeah most of the Czech Mauser rifles are in 7.92 x 57 mm more often called 8 mm Mauser, while a LOT of the various South American contract Mauser rifles were in 7 x 57 mm like yours! It's a great round and you've done a fantastic job bring that one back to shooting condiion.
Thanks for the info we appreciate it and Thanks for watching

@@TheKinzlerBrosspecial thanks for you, remember "always be careful with weapons, take care of safety during test firing (it's good that you do test firing like this), remember I subscribed to you because of your thoroughness in the restoration and test firing of the weapon you repaired at the end of the video because that's why the purpose of restoration is for the weapon to return in good condition, function well and can be used and preserve its historical value, unlike some restorers, get a good and good weapon for restoration but its function is damaged and turned into a toy. lose value and destroy the historical value of reason for neutralization. The weapon is just trash that has no value and is useless for restoration.
Výborná práce při restaurování naší zbraně z Brněnské zbrojovky 🎉❤

I don't like to sand stocks and remove original finish. I.prefer to take a well used 3m green scrubbing pad and dip it into boiled linseed oil and slop it onto a dirty old rifle stock. Scrub gently going with the grain of the wood for 5 or 10 minutes. Then let it stand wet overnight. The next day sctub it lightly again with more linseed oil. Then take a wad of paper towels and rub hard going with the grain to remove the grime from the stock. Then put another application of linseed oil over the stock and let it set overnight again. I find that after soaking the wood in linseed oil for several nights that many small dings and cracks will swell up and dosappear. The end result is usually lvery nice. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for the advice and for watching!
As usual another great video, very therapeutic watching you restoring old guns !!!
Thank you very much we appreciate it!
Nice work! That stock would have been a good candidate for scraping with some flat metal instead of sanding since it was loading up that sandpaper so fast. Saves some time and material that way. I was aware of the Czech G33/40 mountain carbine (our Grandfather brought one home after WWII and we still have it) but I wasn't aware of this rifle at all. Cool video!
Thank you very much and thanks for the tip we appreciate it, That is very cool that you have one as well, thanks for watching!
@@TheKinzlerBros No prob, you do a great job
Chemical stripping of the furniture rather than sanding helps to keep the character. Great looking results though.
That's what I hear, thanks we appreciate it!
6:30 save the sandpaper! Start with glass and scrape. Nice job, Love Brno's.
Right, thanks we appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Beautiful job , always enjoyable watching professionals plying their trade , I wince at some attempts I see on other KZhead channels , must be very rewarding seeing the before and after firearm .
Thank you very much, absolutely very satisfying. Thanks for watching!
Love your video. No music.just the sound of the tools. 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching
Well done! The patina came out nicely.
Thank you we appreciate it! Thanks for watching
Another fine Specimen! Thanks for the share!
Thanks for watching!
Great looking rifle. Awesome job. Really impressive 👍
Thank you very much
You boys are getting very good at this excellent job you saved another one from the scrap yards keep up the amazing work six stars my friends
Thank you very much Joseph we appreciate your support and thanks for watching!
Absolutely love that gun! Stellar job my friends! Happy new years to you both!
Thanks buddy we appreciate it happy New Year to you too
Nice restoration.. Here in Brazil we still use a variant like this in the very basic training, its a Mq M968, almost like this one, but the aim is the drum-like one (like the MP5) and they are chambered in 4 7.62x51 NATO rounds
Thank you very much, Yeah they are a reliable firearm, This one is chambered in 7 x 57, thanks for watching!
Beautiful restoration of the rifle
Thank you very much
Sweet looking Mauser. Great work
Thank you very much we appreciate it
I dig this rifle! Nice restoration as usual Brandon. Happy New Year to both you and Austin!!🎉
Thank you very much, we appreciate it, thanks for watching
Nice save! Well done.
Thank you very much!
Amazing restoration!
Thank you very much!
Great job you really brought it back to its former glory, but if it was up to me i would not have removed the old blueing i would just have boild the metal pieces to restore the old blueing, Mark Novak has som good videos on how to do that. But else then that you did a fantastic job with the new blueing it looks just like the original but stil best to keep the original.
I hear you and I know where you're coming from, thank you very much and thanks for watching
its so satisfying looking you using clip to load it, so smooth! thanks for making this video!
Thank you very much, glad you like it! Thanks for watching
Super job to a rare weapon😎👌🏼
Thank you very much
Very nice restoration. Thanks for the awesome video
Thanks for watching!
I remember seeing those rifles on that auction site, might have to get me one now.
Ya hopefully there is still one left, thanks for watching!
Beautiful restoration man, keeping it original is so perfect unlike some guy I watched "restoring" a kar98 and through away the food furniture. You man are awesome

Thank you very much Chance I appreciate it and thank you for watching!
Dude I ran across that page as well. I bought one and I was trying to look up videos and came across yours. Awesome stuff man. Hopefully I can do right by this. You breathed new life back into the gun. I have restored something like 18 firearms over the course of 6 years. And they have never turned out as well as this.
Crazy!, Thank you very much I appreciate the kind words and I wish you luck on yours hopefully it turns out great, thanks for watching!
I really loved this firearm.
Absolutely awesome!
Nice 👍🏽
Thanks!
Well done.
Thanks
So interesting to watch. I hope to be able to do this one day once I've built my shop. Loved the video
Thank you very much I hope you get your shop one day and can do it too thanks for watching
This guy really knows how to take apart a rifle
Takes a lot of practice, thanks for watching!
Cool little rifle!!🍻👍👍
I love it
Absolutely great work !! ❤❤
Thanks a lot!
It really great !!! Thank you for sharing 👍👍
Thank you very much and thank you for watching
Beautiful looking job 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Beautiful gun and amazing restoration work. Kept it functional and true.
Thank you, we appreciate the kind words, thanks for watching!
@@TheKinzlerBros qq - after dipping the hot metal part in the blueing solution, how long does it stay there? You then transfer it into the water container - is it just a quick wash or it stays there for some time? Thanks
Another great restore (catching up to your videos). That stock was was horrible! Great job not sanding the thing down so that inlay parts don't work! Seen some sanded down stocks that were worse than when they started!
Ya me too, thank you very much, thanks for watching
Fez um bom restauro, parabéns. 🇧🇷. 👍.
Thank you very much
El trato de la madera es muy mejorable.
Ya maybe but, not by much! Thanks for watching
For what you started with, Great job. Your smithing boggles my mind
Yeah it was in rough shape, thank you very much I appreciate it and thanks for watching
Nice work, as always!
Thank you very much!
Great jop you best Congratulations
Thank you very much we appreciate it
Lots of work! Looks good!!
Yes, thank you very much!
Nice caliber, nice rifle, well done!
Thank you very much, we appreciate it
I could watch this channel on repeat all day. Nice work man.
Thank you very much, we appreciate the support!
You are a amazing craftsman, bravo..
Thank you very much!
When you loaded that single round you really stress the claw extractor by not feeding from the mag. That stiffness when the bolt snapped close was the extractor snapping over the rim of the cartridge. I’ve fixed a many of Mausers with broken extractors because unaware owners push a single loaded round into the chamber like that.
Thank you very much for the tip we appreciate it, thanks for watching
I don't understand your comment. The Mauser's bolt was made specifically with such a long extractor in mind solely for the fact that it's more durable and bends slightly sideways in case the extractor needs to go over the rim of a stuck cartridge and not damage both the rim & the extractor. It was part of the design. It would be harmful if the extractor was directly fixed / milled into the bolt like, say, a Mousqueton Berthier.
Well I’m sorry you don’t understand. It can be hard to be perfectly clear typing on the phone sometimes. The Mauser bolt is not like most extractors where there is a central pivot point with a spring in the rear so it can snap over the rim without breaking the cartridge rim resulting in an extraction failure. The Mauser bolt IS fix. It is meant to slip around the rim of the cartridge as it rises out of the magazine. This allows it to hold the round against the bolt when the bolt travels forwards and backwards.
@James T Kirk makes sense. So when you load a single round from the top into the chamber, then push the bolt forward, the extractor don't want that round there it didn't help put there in the first place!
I got an M48 mauser that doesn't always extract. Could that be why? The casing always leaves the extractor claw but doesn't always fly out.
wonderful restoration 👍
Thank you very much we appreciate it!
These are awesome videos
Thanks we appreciate it!
МАСТЕР! БРАВО!
Thank you very much!
I love how most of the old guns just come apart like that with the trigger group like the M1 Garands... The old timers really knew how to make a great gun with simple mechanics. Also, I have to be "that guy" with this... "This one will be cold blued" *Pulls out a blow torch*
That's how you cold blue, now we hot blue. Thanks for watching!
You brought her back to life. Nice job!
Thank you very much
Krásná práce, Mauser vz33, karabiny českých četníků ❤, podobná je karabina vz24 a ta byla pro vojsko ❤
Thank you very much and yes you are correct, thanks for watching we appreciate it!

Thank you very much
Nice resto!
Thank you!, thanks for watching
I'm at 0:37 and this is gonna be interesting. Never done a restoration. But I own a vast variety of firearms. Can't wait to see what you do to this beauty of a firearm..
Hope you enjoy it, thanks for watching!
Wow, awesome job!
Thanks!
Very nicely done!
Thank you very much!
Great restoration
Thank you very much
Gut gemacht nicht überrestauriert. Der Charakter der Waffe ist erhalten geblieben
Thank you very much we appreciate it, thanks for watching!
You should try vintage bright bore stock finish. It will give the stock a nice vintage look after a light sanding.
Thanks for the tip!
Great Restoration 😊
Thanks!
Great work! I'm definitely wondering how strong the action still is with that amount of pitting. Perhaps it would fare better if it had lower pressure reloads over the long-term?
Yeah it's hard to say thanks for watching we appreciate it
It's fine Ive seen and fired worse
Another great resurrection of the gun of the past. Incredible work and dedication to the restoration. Your the best! Happy New Year to you and your family in 2023. Cheers Brandon! 😊
Thank you very much Martin we always appreciate your comments and your support, Happy New Year to you as well!
It came out better than I thought it would .
Thank you very much I appreciate it
Love the restoration the only thing I could say is that if you use a rolled spring steel scraper like the guys over at anvil the wood finish comes off without taking of any of the wood
Thank you very much and thanks for the advice, thanks for the support and for watching!
May I suggest that you try using a scraper on the wood first before using sandpaper.. And if you do use sandpaper, you should wrap if around a hard sponge or a similar type of backer. Using sandpaper with just your finger pressure will result in uneven levels of sanding. Otherwise great job!
Thanks for the advice and tips, thanks for watching!
Nicely done.😊
Thanks
Nice work.
Thanks!
Good save
Thank you!
Awesome!!!
Thanks!!
Whatever collector value this rifle had is gone forever. I can't believe you sand blasted it!
I preserved it so it can be used for another 100 and some years thanks for watching!
Vídeo show , e ainda com teste no final👍🏾
Thank you very much, thanks for watching
Great work!
Thanks!
. Wow. From magnet fishing finding gun to restoring them. You guy have come a long was.Hoping you boys will get a new stock for this rifle. Good job other wise. HAPPY NEW YEAR.
Thank you very much, yes we have come a long way and we appreciate your support thanks for watching, happy New Year
Really nice restoration of this Mauser. Most of the time the contract mausers instead of being 7.92 or 8mm. Yours is 7 x 57. I have a Chilean mauser that was a contract mauser and it is 7x 57. Still a very nice operating rifle. Great job
Thank you very much, yes they are beautiful guns. Thanks for watching!
Good job
Thanks
Lindo trabalho. Sempre quis um desses, parabéns.
Thank you very much, you will get one, I believe in you
@@TheKinzlerBros Obrigado

Great job man
Thank you very much!
very nice. good job.
Thank you very much!
Im pretty sure i looked at that gun on GB, you did a good job!
Ya there were a few for sale, thanks for watching!
Teşekkürler izlerken keşke benim olsa dedim.😆 Çok teknik çalışıyorsunuz 🇹🇷🙋
Thank you very much, yeah they are cool rifles thank you for watching we appreciate it
I started watching this channel backwards with the 1911 restore first. Then realized I had to subscribe. Doing that, I watched your progression over time. Really Nice Results, and I'm planning on getting a Magnet set up soon. LOL Ya got me hooked!
Very cool, thank you very much, we appreciate the support. We didn't get all these magnet fishing. Thanks for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros Yes So I noticed! Which is a good direction for the channel. But none the less, I've gotta try magnet fishing!
nice job
Thanks!
Damn dude, good job.
Thank you very much!
Nice restoration but you forgot to remove the spring ring of the handguard around the barrel before blasting. Normally the ring has two little screws and is placed where the foam was. Like a spanish La Coruna Mauser.
Thanks, ya sometimes you miss stuff. Thanks for watching!
Give Citri-strip or Oven Off a try on the wood stocks. Cleans them up nicely.
Thanks for the tip and thanks for watching!
Excelente! Feliz Ano Novo para você e sua família! 😊👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Thank you very much happy New Year to you as well
Awesome 👍
Thank you!
i had to redo a 1935 peruvian mauser i bought from a friend at work. i had to redo the stock. i had an old missouri conservation magazine and they recommended vaseline to seal the stock against the weather. i did what they recommended and i am glad i did.
That's awesome, great gun. Thanks for watching and for the tip
