I’m starting to unpack a life long collection I started in the 1950’s, and which has been crated up for the last 35 years. Mostly decent to high end WW1 & 2. An odd ball I had forgotten was one of the first to come out, a 1901 Spandau converted to a Kar98b. The early date is nice but of more interest to me is the sight base marked S42G, which I assume would indicate the work was done in 1935.
The bolt is a mismatch and about half mismatched itself. The rifle is made up of two rifles, the stock, buttplate, trigger guard, follower and bolts are from one rifle and the receiver, bbl, bolt release, and new sight are all matching from another rifle. The bbl appears to be the original.
The bands and trigger group have no markings at all and the bayonet mount is yet another number.
Sorry about the upside down photos and their quality, I’ll try to do better!
Any thoughts welcome.
