Polish K98 or K98 AZ?

[noeld003]

Hey all, a guy has this posted on Craigslist as a German K98 barreled action. To me, it looks like a Polish K98 based on the front sight, lack of forearm retaining ring in the rear sight, and forearm retaining ring on the front if the receiver. But, also looks like it could be a K98 AZ? I am not at all familiar with Polish K98s or K98 AZs

Its Polish w/a vacation in Spain, its not worth postage to a German rifle collector (new or retired...); probably not worth much to a Pole collector,... Spain became the dumping grounds for surplus small arms, Spain (so-called republican) had two things, money & troubles (and Poland needed hard currency)... the leftist coalition that took power, conservative authors of the time (English retired military, journalists) said they took a page from Hitler's playbook imitating a Spanish version of the enabling act... not to mention firebombing churches and traditionalist institutions...

Read the period material, especially English military journals, like Army Quarterly(English Officers); avoid modern narratives, esp. wiki-commie-pedia. (anyone who quotes wiki-commie-pedia should instantly viewed with suspicion.
