Ok, these I decided to keep, but really didn't want them to be public knowledge. My three KM '01 DWM Gew98's, consecutive serial #'d, all 3 to the Ist Seebatalion. Of course with nice KM lids & 1st pattern slings. Don't even ask for pics...

Wow, that's an exceptional gewehr!

Excellent pickup!

Why not start another thread instead of "jacking" this thread? FYI, you're going to have to show a lot more pics for an evaluation....

I like it. Haenel's are tough to find in decent condition. That stock looks like an early version of monkeypox, lol

Excellent pickup!

Great theory Chris, very credible. That one has an interesting history.

Mama said son, don't collect ugly rifles....

That's a nice one Sam! I still have some pics of the mint '17 WOK Gew98 from Poulin's auction about 15 years ago. I'll post to another thread soon to show finish & discuss die stamps....

I recall reading something (many years ago) about the grenade rods being hard on the barrels/crowns and sometimes necessitated them needing counterbored. However, rarely see Gew98's counterbored.....

Good deal Chris! These G98 accessories are seldom encountered. I remember seeing the quadrant on fleabay...

Yep, adopted yesterday

Here's a nice one, an all matching 1916 Danzig Gew98. It's got a walnut stock that still retains earlier features, i.e., unit marking disc & no upper stock finger grooves. The firing pin tip has been snipped. This one needs a new caretaker too. PM me for details.

Neat pics, thanks for sharing. The bottom line is we need to be thankful the Imperial German navy did not have enough years to catch & surpass the Brit Royal navy, otherwise the war most likely would have had a different outcome....

I remember this one from years ago, a neat gewehr. I sold it to Cyrus & then it went to Sam.

Nope, no depot #

Great detective work! The '17 Enfield connection is unique indeed...
