    New to me 1941 mauser berlin, 9289a

    Recently acquired this semi-locally with a matching 41 FNJ bayonet. Together they cost me just a hair more then you can find russian captures for. Bolt mismatch AR 41 with a "late" steyr bolt, which is strangely close in serial number! Rest of rifle is matching and original save for sighthood...

    Neat mismatched gew98m

    Picked this up online recently and was surprised how neat it was when I got it in my hands. It is almost completely mismatched save for the trigger and sight parts, but is comprised of some neat parts. Found out this is most likely an Albanian import which explains the import mark, overall...

    The saddest S28 there ever was?

    Picked this poor thing up off gunbroker recently on a whim. Never had a german Mauser from this Era and thought it would make a neat project. May have bit off more then I can chew with this one! Came in a chilean mauser stock so sadly the original wood is long gone. Rear bridge is drilled and...

    S/176 P. weyersburg matching factory error?

    Just acquired this at a local auction, looks to be a all original 1936 s/176 code with an unmarked frog. Flash guard was used as a hammer, scabbard has a couple of dents. Someone looks like they thought about sharpening but never really did anything but removed some of the finish from the edge...

    Is numrich selling humped parts?

    Picked up this triggerguard off of numrich and it just came in the mail. Looks decent overall except for one thing....the qnw mark has a rectangular stamp around it. Never seen this before. Examples ive owned previously did not have this, and ones I see on the picture reference also lack this...

    Supposed "white wash" k98k out of norway.

    I dont know how many people here follow "bloke on the range" but he has posted a series of photos on facebook of a white washed k98k (that supposedly came from norway) and is wondering if it is original. My immediate thoughts are that it is bogus. The kriegsmodell triggerguard is a bit suspect...

    Byf 45 rescue/restoration. Best way to remove paint from stock?

    I purchased this barreled receiver off gunboards a couple months back and have been slowly piecing it back together. Found what I believe to be a byf 44 L block bolt a couple stamped parts that are semi correct and finally scored this sporterized white glue kreigsmodell stock off flea bay. Has...

    Bolt/parts questions.

    I bought a sporterized dot 1944 k98k at my LGS the other day for fairly cheap, and these parts have me confused. It has a all matching bolt that doesn't match the barreled receiver but the milled triggerguard and milled floorplate also match the bolt. Pretty straight forward pieced together...
