The sling stud is shaped so you can have the rifle on a certain way

It's a parade rifle but it's still a shooter. The only difference is the sling stud [emoji106]

It shoots just fine [emoji106]

It's a parade rifle. You can tell by the sling stud

Forgive my ignorance, is the saddle the box with the range dial and serial number?

Sorry to bring up an old post, but when I read the thing about focus rings, I remembered some old pictures I just saw These pictures show german snipers with scopes that have focus rings All I wanted to point out was that focus ring doesn't equal post WWII :-)

I've asked around, and so far I've been told my scope is a post war Ajack, that have received upgraded front lens, because the front lens has a blue glow. Some say that it might have been for the Swedish M41/B. I'm curious to know more. What can you tell me (everything) Also, I was wondering...

i literally feel sick to my stomach with envy :barf:

When i see the rifle and read that it deactivated and look at the pictures again, i get this unpleasent feeling in my stomach. :facepalm:

Really :-/ It's damn hard to buy WWII items when everyone is trying to capitalize on it :'(

Would you say this was build as a sniper or is it just a regular 98K fitted with a scope? (This one is for sale from the same company as the scope)

Down boy... the rifle has been saved! About making a sniper out of an RC seems silly since the rifle will cost me $200 but the scope will cost $1000 :-/ I've been tryingh to read up about 98K snipers but I cant seem to find any info about how they are distinguished from regular 98K's (except...

@Met Thx, makes sense:-) @CanadianAR ahh, okay, thought that type was called claw mount :-S

I also considered placing a bid on this one, but I don't have alot of faith in ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/ZIELVIER-CARL-ZEISS-JENA-RIFLE-SCOPE-ORIGINAL-WW1-WW2-/181240329662?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2a32c3f5be

...as i wrote, i was considering buying one... Seen one for sale at a respected dealer in my country. Edit: Here's a picture of the one I'm talking about. They claim it's original, I'm far from an expert.

What's a "bolt m/m" ? I'm pretty new to the scene, and have yet to learn all the abbreviations.

Oh and by the way, I "only" paid $923,51 for the rifle :thumbsup:

Thanks, that's what i thought, then I'll save it from me ;-) Your replies just saved a 98K :happy0180: Don't want to waste an original scope on a RC, seems kinda waste to me. Maybe I'll just go the replica route then :-)

I have an all matching Portuguise Contract Mauser in mint condition, but I'm considering buying an original scope with original claw mount an attach it to the rifle. Will i go to the collectors hell for this? My own thoughts about the subject is that a lot of sniper, during WWII, was handed a...
