    My first Gew98 for the WW1 collection, 1916 WMO bolt mismatch

    Hello, just wanted to share a recent addition to the WW1 collection, been wanting one of these for awhile. This will probably be my only example for now as it's not a primary focus of my collection, if I'm only going to have one it might as well be pretty. All matching except the cleaning rod...

    1940 French Mas 36 with LK5 stamp on buttstock

    Hello, I picked this rifle up last year while rounding out my "main WW2 battle rifles" collection. Purchased from mchome25 who was gracious enough to hold it a few days for me while I secured funds. Have not seen one like this for sale since so I'm glad I jumped on it. Dated May 1940, all...

    K98k parts rifle, help with identifying stock

    Question about S/27 1937 K98k letter suffix/block

    Hello, I'm trying to work out an issue with a buyer of a K98k. Can anyone tell me what the letter is after the serial on the receiver and barrel? It appears the numbers match on the bolt but not the letter. It seemed impossible to me that an exactly matching numbers bolt from a different letter...

    matching DUV 41 recent pickup

    Hello, just picked this matching DUV 41 up from axis-arms website, price seemed decent to me and I couldn't pass it up. I think this rifle will pair well with my mint CE 42, it's a little more worn and I really like the looks of it. I plan on putting a real sight hood and cleaning rod on...

    My first matching K98k, early CE 42 514 no letter block

    Hello, I wanted to share a beautiful CE 42 K98k I picked up 3 months ago after seeing at a show in late March. Due to the price and condition I decided it was unobtainable and moved on. It kept nagging at me in the weeks after and I knew the rifle still hadn't sold. After owning a couple other...
