K98 Sniper rifle for review

[supperpotato]

Hello, everyone,

Please take a look at this sniper rifle and I would appreciate any feedback. The numbers appear to be all matching and the condition of the rifle is excellent. This was picked up in the Mayor office of Leipzig, along with a lot of other items by US GI.

Let’s see the rest of what the GI brought home.

By any chance was the GI in the Engraving Business?

Thanks for your replies. Is the engraving bad or the whole rifle is nonsense? I'm here to learn. Again, appreciate any help.

Sorry but this is not a war time military made sniper rifle. Post war put together for hunting. Lots of K98ks were sporterized after the war.

Saw this rifle at a local show in Wisconsin and think it was also at SOS. Seller is asking $40K for it!

I have zero doubt on the engraving having been done in the US for not being correct German grammar. Some words would need capital letters at the beginning, what they don’t.
