In the spirit of sharing and drawing out discussion, here are photos of a nice Amberg 1916 dated Gew98 with the updated rear sight assembly. This one is a little later, with the base being made in 36-37 timeframe I guess.
This one came from the Ambrose Selker collection. It's about 90%+ overall, and came with an original sling. The stock has 2 unknown HzA eagles, but they look like either Magdeburg or Ingelstadt type. This one retains most of the original parts, ie the bolt assy, where most Weimar era guns have ground/renumbered bolts. Overall a really nice rifle, and a good example of the nice Gew98m.
