The VolksStubbGewehr, or VSG is a printable Mauser action that utilizes AR15 parts to create a handy bolt action rifle in a classic style, yet using available and affordable ammunition and parts.

This is the base version release which includes support for 16 - 24" standard profile barrels, or derivatives with some stock fitting, and it includes a railed receiver to boot.

September 2025 Update:
The Mauser safety ramp in the bolt body could be overcome by using a longer striker, or a softer material, leading to out of battery failures.
The new update includes a drop sear that is disengaged by the bolt handle itself, as well as minor quality of life improvements.
This updated version includes the railed receiver with this update, and an alternate VSG receiver that is not marked 5.56 for use of other calibers.

If you have existing parts you will need to replace the Receiver, Bolt Handle, Safety Flag, and add the sear and 4mm spring.

24 September:
Small adjustment to bolt body to fit better with new sear
Re-zipped with 7zip to fix possible reported file corruption.
