EOD - bombs and bullets
Picked this up last weekend from a friend. He has had it for 30 years, he bought it for $50 and was going to use it for a base for a sporter...luckily he never got around to doing it...
He told me about it back in early February after I checked over another one for a guy at a show (matching bnz 41..). He didn't realize 98k's were worth that much, so I told him I'd take a look at his. He brought it to the next show, and I looked it over...all matching but the floorplate and follower (which matched each other and are both E/63 marked oddly enough)..although the bayo lug was loose, but jammed forward and stuck by the band...I told him what it was, and what I thought it might be worth, and told him if he ever decided to sell it, let me know. That was that...
The next show he said, if you want it, its yours, so I told him, hell yeah, bring it next week! So last weekend he brought it in, and now its mine.
Took some work to get the bayo lug and band loose and apart (someone had the bayo lug slid forward, and the band slid back so it was wedged together). Once apart, luckily I had a spare bayo lug pin, so it was an easy fix.
Nice solid walnut stock, nice comparison to my "y" block 1937 in laminate stock...
Paul...for you...barrel code is 37 Do 194...
It is all matching except the darned floorplate and follower...no import marks, and in very nice shape...some paint speckles on the stock, which I carefully and judiciously removed. A little tiger stripe in the wood...
Here are my pics, taken in the mancave, since its WAAAAYYYYYYY too cold to go outside!!
