Gew 98
Well-known member
Hi all,
New member here, I've used gunboards extensively for the last several years but I thought I would try a different forum that is more focused on the area of my collection. So I thought for my first post I would share my Gew 91 I picked up last year, it's more if a representative example but with how rare these carbines are you can't be too picky lol. Its a stock mismatch that's been moderately sanded and stained but cartouches are still visible, all metal matching and bore is in decent shape considering for a 100+ year old rifle. Interestingly there is no unit markings anywhere on the rifle, I was pretty glad to pick this rifle up since I was missing one in my collection for sometime! Now I only need a 71/84 and a Kar98a or maybe a colonial gewehr if you could ever find one!
