    Nice K98k maintenance picture

    Pardon the absence or posts, But as the grandson of a Leipzig born tool and die maker and equally tedious Vater, son of the Grosse Vater, I don't discount the fastidious nature of the Germans, now or then. But I have the dubious pleasure, or bad luck, of having 2 rifles which nearly match...

    Herr Sturmgrenadier, Thanks for confirming the source... As an apprentice, guidance from you pros is much appreciated input. I'm definitely going to score an all matching rifle one day, but even a "Russian commie humped" dot possessed that "glimmer of hope" with a ZF41 mount on it... I'll...

    dot Kar98k with ZF41 mount, Russin capture, not matching, Legit, value...?

    Happy Fourth Gentlemen, Saw this rifle this weekend and needed to come to a good source such as this, before I spend $900, to help determine if this is real. It is a dot Russian capture which caught my eye because of the ZF41 mount. The scope and mount are not incl, $900.00. The bolt parts...
