M48 Yugoslavian Mauser
The M48 Mauser is a post World War II intermediate-length M98 action, designed in Yugoslavia. Although similar in general appearance to the German Kar98K rifle, it is not a copy but is based on the earlier Yugoslav M24 rifle. The main difference between the M48 and the Kar98K is that the M48 receiver is 1/4" shorter than the standard-length Kar98K. They are usually easily identified by the top handguard which extends behind the rear sight, and ends just in front of the receiver ring. The model number is stamped under the crest: M48, M48A, or M48BO. M48's are regarded as a military surplus firearm and can be collected in the US at a generally cheap price due to the numbers recently imported from Europe.

Other Models
Sometimes bolt action rifles are used in films to impersonate Mauser rifles, usually in large period films. This section is specifically for bolt action rifles which are not common enough to merit their own page but are technically not Mauser rifles.
Gewehr 1888
Also known as the Model 1888 Commission Rifle, this rifle was issued to front line German Troops in World War 1 until the Gewehr 98s caught up with production and fully replaced it in 1915. It was issued to troops serving the Ottoman Empire and was maintained by Turkish soldiers well into the 1930s. Though it can be seen outfitting German Troops in any World War 1 film, the rifle was surprisingly not a Mauser, but a Commission designed weapon that was built by various other manufacturers. The Rifle was based on Mannlicher, French Lebel and Mauser elements. When the Germans used it during the Boxer Rebellion in China, the Chinese made an unlicensed copy, the Hanyang 88 (Type 88).
