I have that same rifle although mine was used and had no accessories. The bolt doesn't match but everything else does. Headspace is perfect.

I really like it. It is not the best made Mauser but is still well made. Shoots fine.

If you want a work of art, get any German made Mauser produced before WWI. I had an unfired 1909 Argentine made by DWM and the workmanship was off the scale. Absolutely unbelievable. Same goes for the 1895 Chilean and 1908 Brazilian although it is rare to find a really clean Brazilian one.
