I know you can open the floor plate on the magazine, however I've tried for about 10 minutes to get it off and it won't budge. My thought is maybe when they converted to 30-06 is that they changed out the magazine components for the different cartridge, and they don't fit properly in the rifle.

I've always wanted a Mauser type rifle, looked high and low for a German model, but never could find one for a reasonable deal. I'm hoping to get some info on a rifle I got today. I'm sorta new here, my first time posting beyond the classifieds, so I apologize if I ramble.
