It's probably an 8mm....although some Mausers were re-bored to chamber NATO 7.92... The Mauser has it's own 5-round magazine (the part that's coming out of the bottom, with the spring). But if you intend on firing this thing, I must advise you to have a gunsmith take a look at it...The wrong ammo or a faulty part can cost you dearly...
