Just a few pictures but I was happy to grab a couple of bolt m/m vz24’s at Tulsa. This one only has a stock plug unless I’ve overlooked something.

Just thought this kg69 sight base was neat, hadn’t seen one before. Picked it up in a parts bin in Tulsa.

I’ve gone through the books and I’m trying to determine a timeline on these rifles. I bought one with a serial around 3k and can’t quite decipher from what I’ve been reading as to approximately when it might have been made. Also for those of you that may have had one of these apart at some...

This one popped up a couple of weeks back and I had to snag it, it’s my first walnut Brünn 98k actually. Just a handful of lackluster sunny pictures, but it sure was nice out today.

Picked up a parts rifle last week with a m/m bolt, and noticed the bolt was blued? It looks entirely original, even wear etc. Did any range of 410b’s show up with blued bolts or perhaps it is from a different MS series rifle?

This is a small bore, but I’ve seen similar type inspections/markings on other Oberndorf commercial rifles from this time period. I wanted to gather opinions from those who study Oberndorf closer. I don’t know if it could be an internal quality marking, an outside authority, or something else...

I decided to swing by a small local show, and one of these came home with me. I wasn’t aware of what model it was at the time, the “Wenzel“ aspect didn’t ring a bell for what I was thinking it could be. I only have a couple of small bore books to check, and the information I can find has been...

This popped up local, first 98k I’ve bought in a while, just can’t quit even when you want to.. It’s missing the hood, but the sling looks to be original, it’s very set in place and quite dusty under the frosch, and won’t be coming off. The bolt is a neat reclaim, which is common from Brünn.

I picked this one up last year local and my only hang up buying it were the screw stakes. In the end I decided I could live with it, but wasn’t sure what to think. I wondered if it perhaps saw postwar use somewhere, or perhaps the additional stakes are wartime somehow. Has anyone seen a 33/40...

This one popped up last week, and it has some pretty cool attributes. The stock is a rejected walnut piece with a secondary inspection at the wrist. The HG is e/c10 which seems to be common in this range, but it’s elm. The stock also has a small “2” just right of the rear bridge, I presume...

I picked these up at a show last year, can anyone compare the hardware, and general construction on these to known pre 1945 types? They almost feel early postwar but I’m not positive, the ink stamp internally is hard to make anything out on, it might be marked to a rod and gun club or retailer.

I came across this scope case, but have terrible luck with ink stamps, and I won’t be home for a few days to flip through Heidler’s book in regards to the legitimacy of WaAD22. It’s in near mint condition, it’s certainly not a repro case, but what of the ink stamp inside, added later, complete...

I picked this one up last week. As with many types, these are often seen in German service without any apparent depot alterations. Unfortunately it’s missing the enbloc but I couldn’t pass it.

I recently searched through a ton of newspapers for various things, and thought these were some neat pictures. One appears to be a SC.

I thought these pictures were interesting. I think the slings are simply pulled through and wrapped around to shorten them for shouldering but I don’t recall seeing this practice before.

Looking for opinions on this one before I sell it to a member in need. It looks real to me, but unused. It’s die cut as can be seen on the edges, and bent after the fact given the slight reflex on the apex of the bends. It has heavy spring tension but obviously feels different than a 98k hood...

Does this look like legit depot renumbering on this bolt? Not many pictures to go on but the back half isn’t renumbered, just a line out on the body it looks like.

Thanks to a good friend who let me trade him out of this. I believe this to be DJ and or a Forestry related rig, as I came across an old thread over on the luger forum discussing green holsters in relation to this. There was a notation from an Akah catalog posted, that stipulated green for the...

This screw in the middle seems very familiar, but I can quite place what it is, any ideas?

It’s commercial, but since some of the foremost optic collectors visit this forum I thought I would ask here. Yesterday I bought what I believe is a prewar Sauer scope for a double rifle or similar, it has Sauer’s proprietary single claw rings on it. I believe it to be early 1900’s but would...
