Here it is ( the images are to big for the forum so i used links instead ) : https://www.noelshack.com/2023-21-2-1684871060-img-3435.jpg https://www.noelshack.com/2023-21-2-1684871157-aa.jpg https://www.noelshack.com/2023-21-2-1684871157-aaa.jpg...

Sure, but now that you've mentionned it, I admit there seems to be some kind of patern there.. Sure, I will post it here as I already made some posts about it on other forums, but I learned more on it since then

And about this, I personnaly never noticed, but my RBNr/Luftampt5 has the cross variant of scabbard so the type of scabbard probably wasn't issued with great accuracy ( or the soldiers exchanged / lost one and got a new one who knows )

A bit late to the thread but here is an information that nobody told here : The luftwaffen-kampfmesser with LuftAmt 5 also had in some extremely rare cases an RBNr marking ( RBNr 0/0561/0020 ) on the opposite side of the blade. There are many fakes with RBNr but to my knowledge the RBNr...

Hello Ernie8 ! So is that confirming that even if i have an older receiver from a 1916 kar98a i can still shoot common kar98k ammunition with JS inscription ? ( while being carefull for the first shots of course )

Thank you once again Muncher :] If i shoot it i'll try to do it safely just like you said, meanwhile i've already put a safety back on and changed the wood ! I hated how it looked before so i had to change it, here is the result after a little bit of wood cuting and all because some of the...

Hello, yes there is a "7.92" small inscription on top of the receiver a few centimeters upper the " Erfurt 1916 " inscription. But i don't see any on the barrel itself, but if it is a k98k barrel i guess it can shoot JS cartridges... I'm not an english speaker so i didn't understood every...

Hello everyone. So, I have a "kar98" wich has a Kar98 AZ chamber ( marked 1916 Erfurt ) but a kar98k barrel because it was modified by hunters after the second world war. I know Kar98 AZ were developped to shoot the " 8x57 J " cartridge, and during ww2 the guns were marked with a new "S"...

Hello again. I've done some research about this gun, It indeed has a k98az receiver and trigger gard, with a k98k barrel and k98k sights. the stock however is weird and was cut because it was used as a hunting weapon for a bit of time. I however still have some questions and points i want to...

Okay thanks i didn't knew that, however when i look online the kar98A has some differences with mine like the gun sight , do you belive it's just that it's a newer barrel maybe?

(It seems all of the photos didn't showed on my original post so here they are :) https://www.noelshack.com/2019-46-4-1573769820-444.jpg https://www.noelshack.com/2019-46-4-1573769824-555.jpg https://www.noelshack.com/2019-46-4-1573769828-666.jpg...

Hello, I own this supposed "kar98" but i am not sure if it really is one or not, it is indeed marked "Kar 98" on the side of the receiver but it's dated " Erfurt 1916 " on top of the receiver too ! And as far as i know kar98 didn't existed in 1916 so how is it possible ? The gun isn't in his...
