Hoping Graf and others will comment on this Gew.98 and dial in for me the history of this rework? from what the stock is telling you.
The action is serial 9292... and front sight is 92 sn on the white Amberg 1916 receiver.
The smaller parts are "78" serialed. That is, the rear sight parts, bands, FP, follower, bauo lug, and bolt release are "78" marked.
Buttplate is SN 7378, with a 4/M mid plate and then a cancelled unit mark at the top of the plate.... 2 over 2 over L. over C but pretty hard to see.
Wood has lots going on...
Bolt is mm. Bore is great!

- Keel has the orig serial overstamped with "9282" and the mistake ... rather than 9292? Below the SN is Crown/B over smaller B.
- Wrist... has cartouche over "10"
- Forward of the trigger guard, but in the wood is a lazy S over G over small 3 just forward of the TG.
- The RS of the stock appears to be a pretty standard series of cartouches... on the stock's LS is a "6 X E"
Bolt is mm. Bore is great!
