Hi all,
I wasn't really sure if If best to post in here or the third reich forum, but since posts pertaining to gew 98m seem to be here I chose this one. What I have is a mix master: 1917 Amberg receiver with upgraded S/42g rear sights done during 1935, a mix of other imperial parts, including the Bavarian straight bolt and various Nazi era parts including a laminate k98 stock. I'm not sure if this is a proper german k98 rebuild or if it was a gew 98m sent to Franco and later messed with. It has a small "8mm" import stamp by the rear sight. I also am unsure of the red finish on the stock and am wondering if I should refinish it. Any thoughts and help are appreciated.
Thanks
