I am in need of some assistance trying to figure out what I have exactly. Some are obvious and I have figured out, but my problem with those is figuring out if they are worth keeping and selling or just use them as a tactical home defense bat.

Anyways, here they are...

Re: Help identifying old barrels and actions?

1: Spanish Mauser
2: 1917 Eddystone with the sight ears milled off
3: Most likely a Turkish 93 Mauser barrel
4: No.4 MK1 Enfield
5: Mauser barrel that appears to have been rechambered to 8mm06. Very common back in the day.
6: 1903 Springfield barrel, probably two groove. If the bore is good and the exterior isn't very pitted someone will want that.
7: VZ24 large ring Mauser barrel
8: Just guessing, maybe a water-cooled machine gun barrel. Maxim?
9: Japanese Arisaka in 7.7mm. Think it is a Type38
10: Large ring Mauser barrel

Thank you sir!

The 1903 barrel has no pitting at all on the outside. the bore could be better, its a little flat near the chamber and it gets sharper as it approaches the end.

as far the #8... who knows... I just looked down the bore and there is no chamber...just rifling from one end to the other.
