Saw this interesting K98 for sale in a local shop. Looks like it was built on an early Czech vz23 or vz24 receiver. The rest of the rifle is in standard Israeli K98 configuration with a birch stock, pinned sight hood, etc., but is still in 8mm caliber. Most of the Israeli K98s I have seen recently are converted to 7.62. Might need to add this one to the pile!
