Several years ago I bought a similar early post-war scrubbed receiver Brno K98 that was still in 8x57 but also wearing an Israeli 7.62...

Get several rounds through it and get the barrel hot then scrub the shite out of it. You'll get a lot out of it.

Welcome! Our Postwar forum is the ideal spot for M-48 discussions.

I realize that. There are many posts here about the M48, both asked and answered. I thought this looked to be a good place to ask...

John of John Taylor Machine Shop (Johntaylormachine.com) is amazing. If you need parts fabricated seems like nothing can stop him...

Welcome aboard, but your M48 is a bit of a different animal than a k98k.

I’m gonna get flak for this but that’s why I moved over to Japanese, Type 99’s for the most part. Completely correct and matching...
