Steve I would imagine that most 71 carbines will have the stock shortened like mine. I really enjoy shooting it and with the right load they can be quite accurate.

The top one is quite nice. Was that particular to the originals along side the bullnose muzzle cap? The 71 mauser rifles are very slick. My m71 is very enjoyable to shoot.
