KS98 - THE HORSTER COLONIAL CONTRACT

[markwadeks98]

Horster received large contracts from the colonial office for wooden handled ks98s in 1913 , this specific example has no unit markings but is in a colonial issued frog marked "Pol Tr" hinting perhaps as it being used by the politzeitruppen in togo (open to debate , any input welcome)

I assume all proofs on this items are same and are X as typical for Hoerster, for good source about Polizei Truppe You should look here by colonial rifles there are many good links, same as You should search for R.Selzer internet pages and Polizei Truppe marking.
