One of my favorites. 
It's a German K98k Short Side Rail. Can't remember the scope. Dave knows.

At first glance a K98k SSR sniper with Ebra 4x81 scope.
By Georg I think he's got it !!!!!!!!!!!!
If I had to wager money my bet would be said sniper rifle is an SS SSR .

Great stuff. I have seen it before as well. The young guy at about 41 secs, I am pretty sure is the same guy testing a PEM Side mount at about 115 secs.. I have seen him building PEMs in another video. He must have worked at Tula on the sniper line for a long time, if the same guy. Note the first rifle is a hex with what must be a Geco or earlier system than the PE top mount (begins 1933) and Zeiss type scope. Note the unique bolt handle. The guy must have been around from at least 1932 till the first PEMs in 37 or 38. Pretty sure it is the same guy.
What think others? Anyone else seen the other video which had more PEM production footage and the same fairly young man?
Thanks Dave.
The first rifle in question was surely a SSR, I agree.
