    Wondering which forum might be correct for this WWII era rifle

    Just need info from a more informed source. Here is what I have. It is a CZ Sporting Rifle in 8mm Mauser. Double set triggers, express sights, spoon bolt handle, excellent blue quality, nicely checkered walnut furniture, Schnabel style fore end on the Mannlicher stock. The interesting part is it...

    Removal of K43 gas piston

    OK, got the shooter's kit and springs. All was well till I tried to switch out the gas piston. Solid a a rock. Have been applying Kroil every few hours to no avail. Any tricks, or advice. I got this rifle to shoot, but don't want to ruin it either.

    One of my few

    I came over here after I had a successful dispersal of my remaining Russian guns in Tulsa last month. I then spent over a third of what I grossed on a K43 and came for info. I've enjoyed the site and folks here. I have some Mausers, just not a lot of German used ones, but a few. I decided to...

    K98k with Banner stock (RC?)

Found this one in an old thread on another site and want to approach the guy about a trade, but obviously...

    Duffel cut effect on value

    So let's just say the value of a certain G43 was $3000 with an original stock. Identical rifle with a duffle cut stock would be discounted what, if any? Thanks for replies, just trying to learn some things.

    ZF4 scope cover repair?

    Ok, 'nother newbie question. The ZF4 scope and mount I had pictured with my ac/45 K43 recently had a scope lens cover with it. Unfortunately, the objective lens cap's leather strap was broken off right where it was riveted onto the cap due to age/wear. Does a guy try and fix that? Leave it...

    First K43 ID info requested

    A little info on me (not that it matters, but just an explanation) I have many posts on other sites and have had a fairly advanced Mauser collection. I do not have a significant number of WWII weapons in general though. I have always desired a G/K43 though. I got a scope years ago and had a...
