First time post from me and this rifle is giving me a headache.
I have acquired a 1937 S/147 code K98K...That's been converted to 7.62/.308. At first I thought it was a Israeli conversion but their are no Israeli marks on the rifle anywhere. The second issue I'm having is the barrel serial number matches the receiver number and all the other parts on the rifle. So was this a post war conversion done by JP Sauer themselves or is this some elaborate bubba job?
