Yesterday another K98 was added to my collection.
A completely equal numbered K98 from Oberndorf with a turret mount, unfortunately without the scope. I suspect from theyear 1943 .
The weapon cames from a legacy of a good friend of me who deceased at 84-years of age a few weeks ago. His children gave me as first the chance to obtain some K98's from his extensive weapon-collection.
That man had the weapon since the end of the 40s in his possession. And it's also known where the sniper was hidden, witch is a nice extra in this case.
The weapon is in my opinion never been disassembled . The lower band is even fitted reversed on the rifle .
Here the pictures as I have obtained the weapon. As you can see, the weapon has not been kept in ideal conditions .
Now I'll let the pictures speak . Later followed by a solid (technical ) explanation and photos of all parts and the cleaning-process of the weapon.
