Mauser K98 blueprints

Sorry, I forgot to add this update to the thread.
I have "finished" the receiver CAD and am now getting onto the bolt. I am about 80% sure it is accurate, but I have yet to go through validate it. The only parts I have left off the model are the edge breaking operations on the front of the 'rear bridge' besides the stripper clip guide, and the edge breaking operations on the side wall. Those features are monumentally awful to model and I don't particularly want to spare the brain power doing so.
On a separate note, do ya'll know about the thick side wall receivers? Specifically, how does the continuation of the front ring radius end/taper into the smaller radius that makes up the rest of the forging? I cannot find an image of an original thick wall receiver out of the stock.

Hello sir.
I used the blueprints from the 4th page of the forum. Generally, I want to make both the gewehr 98 and the karabiner 98k. I think we can work together if you wish to.
With respect.
Going to be doing some material selection soon. In other news, the file group for the k43 has been digitized, with technical drawings of the receiver and stock.

Hi, just finish this one
My request for PH 24/463 and PH 24/464 have come in. Both are digitized, the former contains info on the G98 and K98az stocks, the screws for securing the receiver to the stock/trigger guard, the (lange)P08's engineering drawings, and engineering drawings for the Hoffman Machine Pistol(MP18?), plus the snail drum, as well as some boxes and acceptance devices. I have not gotten to look through the latter, but I believe it is engineering drawings for acceptance devices and various components for the MG08, 08/15, and 08/17.

Hi!
I have a question. Are you making an exact copy of the 3D model?

I found the book on internet,maybe some russian guy uploaded it,on the back section has completed drawings except leather holster and snail drum,just go through the book you may found the parts for the late production of the lange pistole,hopefully this will help you out.

Wow, nice work on the Lugers. Are your models dimensionally correct?

Hello Peter.
It's a very nice model. Can I ask You to share or trade it with me?
With respect.
Hello sir,I believe most of the parts are accurate,due to image quality,some of the measurements on blueprints are hard to read
and after finished all parts and found following:
1. large gap between rear bottom of the grips and lower frame,note,grip chequer pattern suppose engraved on both flat and curve surface.
2. unknown knurling on toggle,may be wrong pitch is used and only 3/4 straight knurling need to applied to toggle knob surface?
not sure if any special fitting process required during assembling to remedy those faults?

My apologize,I should read the rules before posting any contents
Hi everyone,
I'm currently creating a 3D model of a milled Mauser K98k trigger guard, dated around 1940. My primary reference is the detailed technical drawing “RH 8/3307A – 0025.jpg” generously shared by“dder11”.
However, I’ve encountered a puzzling inconsistency. In the front view of the trigger guard , the area just beneath the receiver appears trapezoidal—wider at the bottom and narrower at the top. But in most real parts I’ve seen, as well as in other people's 3D drawings and photo references, that section is rectangular, with consistent width from top to bottom.
This small detail is driving me a little crazy (I'm a bit OCD when it comes to accuracy
). I really want to model this part as precisely as possible.
Could this trapezoidal appearance be a result of the drawing perspective ? Or is there a legitimate variation in some early versions? I’d really appreciate any clarification or historical context you can share.
Many thanks in advance!
