Ak_Red,

You have a 7x57mm Short Rifle M1916 based on the M1893 action. If all you have is the boltless action and barrel, then I would say your gun is far beyond economical refitting. If you want a wall hanger, get a M1916 Spanish Mauser and hang it on the wall, and oil it a bit more than the pictures of your action reflect.
