Hello everyone, I'm fresh to the forum and have spent the past 3-5 hours frantically trying to school myself on Mauser 98 rifles.
Long story short, I work in a Pawn Shop in Butte, Montana and we have 2 Mausers in stock. For $225 there's a Mauser in here chambered for 8mm and it has a Nazi Eagle on it. I thought it was just an *okay* rifle until a collector I trust came in and looked at it, he got very excited and said it was a 1944 98K, and just overall made it sound like it was a fantastic find.
Basically, I'm trying to decide if I should buy this rifle or not tomorrow before he gets back with money to purchase it himself. Absolutely ANY info anyone can provide me, would be outstanding and appreciated.
