Volume IV - Call for Data - Kriegsmarine Issued K98ks

[bruce98k]

Guys any of you with Navy rifles can you post data on the gun.

I need the following:

1. Code and year of gun
2. Sn or partial Sn with letter block
3. Stock service issue mark: H or M (Stock must be original and matched to action)
4. Disk naval property marking
5. Any buttplate marking (ie. N) relating to Naval use.

Also if you can post a good clear pic of the disk I would appreciate it.
This will be stickied as well.

Super thanks,
Bruce

S/42 1938 #1003e Kriegsmarine

Got this in 2022 from GB for $1,200 plus typical costs. Probably helped that it was marked in being 30-06 but it's still 8mm along with a 660 1940 (high 80% condition range and matching) and a matching BYF 43 going the same night. Screw heads appear to be untouched but it is a bolt mismatch...

This one doesn't makes all the marks but here ya go. It is a Kriegsmarine bolt mismatch.

Happy to contribute.

1. S/147 1937
2. 2524 p
3. H marked stock
4. O. 6243
5. No discernable markings on buttplate, it's been very thoroughly beaten on and I believe it to be an armorer replacement. The whole butt end of the stock was replaced.

If any further information is required I'll be glad to add.

Is the stock original to the rifle - S/147 2524p?
