to make my mixmaster K98 more period correct? Or should i save my money and time for an all matching example?
Some notes about the rifle:
- BCD42, I’m pretty sure receiver and barrel match but the barrel isn’t serialized. The rear sight base matches the receiver.
- Norwegian capture stock (not cupped, not correct for my BCD42) all matching metal hardware
- mismatch bolt, bolt guts match the metal parts in the stock (not pictured, I recently swapped)
-bolt release matches receiver and barrel
So, is it worth it to find a BCD42 stock when my current stock, although not correct for the period or manufacturer, is all matching?
At the end of the day, I’ll eventually spend money on a matching example, should I just save my nickels til then?
Thanks
P.S. pictures are the sellers from when I purchased the rifle last year.
