Hello all, I posted not too long ago about a rifle I found. I went back and it was indeed all matching, except the cleaning rod. Butt plate to floor plate, firing pin to front sight. The stock and forearm have pencil marked "33" in the channels as well. All WaA623 marked and matching SN...

Thank you for the feedback. It gives me at least a "ballpark" which is what I needed. I'm pretty sure it is a "pure" 660 but I will double check. Thanks again!

I will definitely get pics after Christmas. It is an "honest" looking rifle. unmolested, dings, wear. Correct patina IMO. If I recall correctly (they have about 4-5 different K98s there) the WaA is present but hard to see. I remember all the visible numbers matching but can't remember if this...

Good day all, I have found a 1940 660 code K98k. It has been a week since I have seen it and can't recall if it is a pure matching or bolt m/m. I really wasn't looking for a new K98k but I have a very nice RC 41 bnz. and just bought a 1945 Steyr made Radom P.35(p) so Steyr is becoming a...

It is rediculous and completely counterproductive to destroy, erase or minimize history. The German's sticking their head in the sand, the US rewriting the civil war, and so many other examples do a dis-service to those that lived through it, and those that must learn from it. So, by the...

Will do! Thanks!

Thank you! I recently moved and just dug out my set of the books to do further research. I appreciate the response! It is neat to think that this was "hidden" by someone, just another neat possibility when researching and collecting these great artifacts. I have a nearby store with a...

A few more photos.

Good afternoon, I picked up something of a Frankenstein 1916 Danzig Gewehr 98 modified. It is a fairly recent import, mix-master. Unfortunately the bolt is a Czech / Brno bolt if anyone has a more appropriate one. :-) What is interesting to me is that it has the S42/G K147 rear sight base...

Definitely walking. Well, I appreciate it. I'm sure someone will appreciate it for what it is, a good hunting rifle with historical significance. Thanks again.

what about the peep sight? I would only want it as a shooter and and a piece of history. Are those peep sights drilled or attached in a non-destructive manner?

... *sigh* Thanks. :-(

last few. I sure hate seeing this but at least, I suspect, a WW2 vet got a nice hunting rifle out of the deal.

What I thought but I hate seeing a veteran like this. Here are the first few (bad) pics. Sorry for the quality.

Good evening. I will post pics as soon as I get home but I found a sporterized but matching dot 44. More details to follow but key points: Rear sight & base removed and Lyman (?)I target sight added. Original stock highly bubba'd. bolt body polished. Good (maybe): $289 I don't know if the...

Don't blame you I'd have snagged them too!

Thank you very much. If I don't rotate the safety, the rifle only fires when I pull the trigger. It is an RC so very possible they didn't care so much about it being safe but caring very much that it fires!

Thank You for saving me from myself! Thank you all. I always feel like I need to be a "no-kill rescue shelter" for military artifacts. My wife does not really appreciate that sentiment so I have to be a bit more selective! Thank you all again.
