Tons of boomers out there with a butchered milsurp in a cheap plastic sporter stock. I could definitely believe he stole it from one of them.
CaptPenguin made an excellent point about the idea of a .30-06 Mauser:

Sig bought out Mauser? Ugh, guess that's another good gun brand Ron Cohen will ruin with cheap parts and poor QC.
BANG
"Did... Did that come from the Mauser?"
Actually, someone told me something interesting that I completely forgot.
Old Mausers are in 8mm. The Germans never had .30-06 cartridges.
k98 Mausers were converted by European governments into a large number of different cartridges, from 308 to, yes, 30-06.
However, said 30-06 conversions aren't exactly common, so this may not be applicable.
It could just be bubba'd to hell and back.
Edit: And, because I'm a dum-dum, I'll amend this; 1903 Springfield's are Mauser-action rifles, and chambered in 30-06.
Yeah, it could be a "wildcat" conversion, or whatever. But that makes it even less likely that it's a professional, and way more likely it's their dad's gun.
There's also a 7mm Mauser that's a hunting cartridge. Anyway, if accurate, I'm sure this is a ruined surplus K98, or maybe some fudd wrecked one of the Yugo clones.
Literally Cursed Gun Images when this thing gets shown off.
