New to site and just trying to get back into shooting. So my father recently passed away and I was inventorying his guns. He has a rifle that my mom inherited from her uncle years ago. It is a bolt action rifle with no English language markings. In fact, I do not even know the origin of the markings. Perhaps Arabic? Old Turk? It has engraved picture on the stock of what looks like a deer, and on the hinged fore plate what looks like pronghorn. Oh, and I found a box of rifle ammo for either 8mm or 9mm Mauser and another one that I can't recall (at moms so can't get now), which my dad never had so perhaps one of those is the cartridge? Any help would be appreciated. Or direction to site to try.
