Hello guys.
I'm new here and I'm from France, so, I hope you'll apologize my poor and clumsy english.
51 yo, and collecting reglementary rifles for more than 30 years.
In past, I owned a lot of Mausers rifles of all types, but now I only have a scarce all-matching 1911 Danzig Kar98a.
In a couple of days, I will get a Karab.98b that I bought today.
It's a Simson "a" block, full lenght barrel, all matching except the bolt and triggerguard.
I'll post some pictures as soon as I get the rifle.
I have a question about the regimental marking on the shoulder stock disk : 1/K.5.78
Does it mean 1st cavalry regiment, 5th company, rifle #78? Or something else?
Thank you
Francois
