Santa Barbara actions were made in spain and imported here. Different companies would build them up and brand them.

santa barbara rifle

the stock was put on this gun at either bishops of fajens gunstocks here in warsaw mo they have both since closed its an ugly heavy stock and I want to put a synthetic stock on it but dont know where to get one or if thats possible , any thoughts

 

[Dcomf]

It's a Mauser 98 action IIRC so most any place that makes synthetic stocks should have what you need. Sorry I can't be too specific at this time.

I used to work with a gun smith in Richardson Tx. He was the only one I knew of at the time who distributed the Sant Barbera barreled action. The invester who owned the inventory I never knew. I had several of the guns back in 1973, some I re barreled with Schillen barrels in 25/06, 6mm/06, 257 roberts. Anyway They all had Roberts stocks, the ones I did not put Schillen barels on were stamped Richard Texas and had Star barrels on them. I assume there were others who smithed the same barreled action but I cannot tel you where they were imported from and who the importer may have been.
Hope this helps!

I know this gun is not worth a whole lot!, it is a family gun purchased in 1938 16 GA. Pump with a adjustable choke. I have found out these guns were made by Mossberg, Ithica and I thing Savage, Well how do tell which manufacturer made wich gun?
Thanks.

I have a 98 Mauser with a synthetic stock and would like to put a wood stock on it. Not a cut down military stock, Post some pictures and maybe we can work something out.
