Looking over one of my rifles and I noticed this mark on the stock where the sling would go through looks like an L to me did they ever mark rifles here?
Hey guys i know these late war rifles didn’t have a ton of markings and stamps compared to early on but im trying to figure out if this is original stock on rifle the only mark I can find is what appears to be an L where the sling would go through rifle.
The 39 is all matching except safety and firing pin, it was a bring back. The 45 SVWMB is all matching except floor plate and it’s German produced which I heard is somewhat rare for that code
What can you guys tell me about these rifles, especially the ones with the French proof that could be the last made by the Germans. Rarity? Value? Thank you
Im trying to find an authentic war production K98, i know theirs a lot to look out for and im new to this, but im thinking my best bet would be a USGI bring back? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
