when you visit the local gun shop and you find a K98 kriegsmodell BYF45 is mint condition behind a ton a rifles you look around for the candid camara guy to pop in at any time during the transaction, but alas i hit the motherload, at least i think i have. Feedback is welcome, what do you think for a rookie collector's luck?

"Ach du lieber!"
it wasn't a candid camera, but the joke is that everything is renumbered and the stock is refinished. send it to me immediately for permanent disposal in my safe
seriously, great rifle and great score

Actually, it's kind of bad luck, because you'll never find one that good again, and everything else will be a letdown.
Just kidding, that's a score.

This gun store is like great fishing hole , fishman dont reveal their secrets

I had to get your second addition , bought one yesterday . Looking forward to reading further and understanding what it's like to be a caretaker of a piece of history.

That Really is Beauty Great Score indeed , For my taste it would need a set HT Rings and an Ajack or Kahles.
But that`s just me .
Best Regards
