Gewehr 98 Waffenwerke Oberspree Kornbusch 1916 6787e

[PrayingMantis]

My first (of two, don’t get too excited) WOK. This walked into the OGCA in 2014. Overall nice looking bolt mismatched example—I love the dark metal receiver—with a beech stock.

Another nice example Cyrus! Can’t wait to see the other one. How many WOK’s do you have? I think I remember a 15 you have also.

Thanks, Rick! Much appreciated. The only other WOK I have is the 1915, I got it from Mike earlier this year and it is spectacular, I am very fortunate to be its caretaker: https://www.k98kforum.com/threads/gewehr-98-waffenwerke-oberspree-kornbusch-1915-6731.49969/
