Hey folks , Been over on the Gunboards for years. I've been directed over here for better/more advice
I have a several non-German Mausers but I have always wanted a nice German/Nazi era specimen with machined (not stamped) hardware.
Available for me is an 1939 depot build on a BSW . I don't have many details but told the fellow I would consult a friend and get back to him if I had any questions. I don't think I'll get great pics in advance of being able to look at it next weekend. What he says :
"A rare WWII K98 produced at a Luftwaffe depot using a BSW receiver. All matching except the bolt but the bolt matches itself. Clean, good shape, very nice condition. Asking $895"
Well? High $ ? Low $ ? What questions should I ask? I may be able to ask for a specific pic or two.
Someone on Gunboards said there was a picture area here that might show examples of the rifle I'll be evaluating.
Thanks in advance.
