Yes, that is an actual broomhandled Mauser in 7.63 Mauser (astute readers will note the lack of the red "9" on the grip as indicative of the original chambering). This was another magnificent offering brought by Paul of State Line Gun Shop (can't have enough gratuitous plugs for Paul!).
For those who were wondering, the Mauser is grandfathered by the ATF for the shoulder stock. It does not achieve NFA status as an AOW (Any Other Weapon) as would, say, a Glock 34 with a shoulder stock attached (the Glock in the link is also a Class III machine pistol; if it had a suppressor on it it would hit the trifecta of NFA status...)
Also didn't get to shoot this gun, and really wish I'd gotten a chance - I've never fired a broomhandled Mauser, which, growing up watching Star Wars and Han Solo's blaster, is almost a crime...
Should be back to post some fresh stuff soon. Until then,
That is all.

I thought it was Pistol + Stock = SBR; Pistol + vertcial fore grip = AOW?
Sounds good to me...see here The inverse happens with chopped rifles; if the receiver ever had a stock attached, it's an SBR; if not, it's a pistol. Google "Mare's Leg."
That Mauser is unspeakably beautiful.
