I mean I’ll be honest. It’s a pretty fun, and whoever owned it definitely took care of it. I wouldn’t mind getting it, but I don’t feel comfortable trading the hakim. Now if I was trading the hakim for one of those Czech K98s off of classic that would feel like a good deal in my opinion.

Oh ok that’s pretty cool! I kept reading the opposite hearing the S was for the .323 diameter, but I would say people on here would know more than I do. I didn’t know the dot meant anything to be honest, couldn’t come across that info but I’m Glad to know that because I was planning on getting...

Well, I’m trying to post the picture but give me a sec and I’ll see if it worked. Sorry about that.

I picked this up from a pawn shop for $275. I’m kind of curious to know more about the gun. It seems to be an 88/05 Turkish rifle and all matching except for the magazine on the bottom. The stock I think is a later made one, but I’m not sure. Here are some pics I took for a gentleman. It’s...

I’ll take that advice. I’m definitely keeping notes about what to look for In an authentic gun.

Sorry I was just going by what one of the guys above said. Either way I know it’s not the original stock even if that stock is beautiful as can be.

He seems to act like he didn’t know it was that bad and I kind of feel bad after telling him because he seemed super sad. He said he traded a Sig Sauer M17 army surplus and $250 for it, and in like oh man...those pistols alone are going for $800....

Alright I appreciate the help. After looking at pics I notice the stock does indeed look very similar to the Russian captures. I wouldn’t mind a few parts being mismatched and all, but if it’s not in the time correct period stock that kind of bothers me

It’s not a wonder he wants it then. The hakim I have as far as I can translate is all matching (I can’t read Arabic well) and it’s the last year of production. I’m kind of bummed because I really want a Kar98k for my collection but I keep coming across spotters, and sporter saves, and ones that...

He said he wants to do the rifle plus 150 to him and I mean I like kar98ks but I mean..come on. That’s kind of a lot since hakims are going for almost a $1000 on classic.

This guy is offering a Kar98k for my Egyptian Hakim. I’ve always wanted a Mauser and despite I like my Hakim I would take a Kar98k over a hakim any day. It’s not matching, but I don’t really mind that. But the stock looks kinda funny, and I’ve never seen one with numbers on the side of the receiver

Here are some pictures of a kar98 this guy in my town is selling. The bolt seems to be a reproduction, if not force matched but the rest seems authentic to me. Can anyone help out?

Only issue is I would have to get the guy who wants to sell it to do that and he doesn’t even want to take more pics as he isn’t responding to me at all.

I sent him a text message about it. So we will see if o have any more pictures to show you guys. Thank you for helping me out. Like I said I’m just now getting into firearms since I have a steady job now. I actually am in the process of getting a nagant revolver too!

On the second one the guy wants to know what he needs to take a picture of. What should I tell him since I’m not sure what to ask for exactly?
