S/147 1937 K98kF1 Norwegian capture

[Dazitt]

Hello,

I want to introduce some photos of 98kF1 that I recently got.
I'm sorry that it has several holes on barrel, receiver, bolt. This 98k was deactivated for museum purpose.
Also its bolt and trigger is welded to the receiver and trigger guard, so I couldn't take photos of disassembled parts.
Though this is my first collection of real 98k, and really glad to have it.

hmm.. any opinions and knowledge about its mixed serial numbers, waffenamt, stock color (walnut?), Norwegian characteristics will be welcomed!

I'm going to have another 98k, dot 44 shortly.

most of the Norwegian Surrendered rifles I have seen are mostly matching. Maybe when this one was demilled it was mixed up with several others. It was converted to 3006, the relief cut in the top of the receiver shows that, most were but not all. Walnut stock would be correct for an early rifle. Taking it apart you could check the barrel channel for a SN. The flat spot on the receiver was also done in Norway and the markings are for the army.

Thank you for those infos. and I agree with you about when the parts were mixed, because even Norwegian SNs are not matching too.. (receiver and buttplate)
If it could be disassembled, I will check the SN of stock as you said.

I couldn't imagine walking into a museum and seeing a cut up rifle with an orange cap on the barrel like a toy. Shame some people think doing that to history makes sense. It would be a beautiful piece.

I understand what you mean and removed the orange caps away from photos
I am really sad it have been damaged by no reason.. Incoming dot 44 that I saw on some photos has no holes like this one.
