I posted about this weapon a couple years ago. it's an all matching Danzig 1916 pre-Alpha numeric. The bolt and receiver are pretty patina'd. Should I want to get these cleaned back into the white as issued, one- who would you recommend? or 2-leave it be? Not wanting to go all mitchells'...

When you disassemgble a mauser bolt, be it what ever mfg, German, Swedish, American '03's, the flag safety shaft on the end has the tip milled to semi-cylindrical, this rolls into the notch on the back of the bolt body and locks the action. This semi-cylindrical portion is broken off this...

For the last few years I've been looking for a Gew98. My youngest son gets mad when I make him go, "roller coaster sights, un-bubba'd" his little rant that he knows he knows he knows what I'm looking for. My oldest goes willingly and has a good time at a great gun show w/ little beef jerky...
