I’ll measure it, but as far as taking the rear mount off, the scope has a focus adjustment so it’s not as easy as just unscrewing the ocular piece. (Pic below is the same scope) If there are tips on how to disassemble the scope safely, I’m all ears.

of course not

Anything special about this mount? I picked up the scope for a possible SSR build . If the mount is junk I’ll just take it off without dismantling the scope

Is the rifle code historically appropriate for a turret mount ? Kinda pointless on worrying whether low or high turret is more historically accurate if the base rifle manufacturer never supplied rifles for turret mounts in the first place. Inspection stamps , stock differences… Even if the...

Most gun forums , on a good day…😉

The handguard retaining ring/lip is the key here. You could go down the rabbit hole . A similar sporterized rifle cost me $350, was also already drilled and tapped for a scope base, but was exactly what I wanted for my project...

If you look at the trader forum here there are better rifles, for less money, available right now.

It's a russian capture K98k. Not that it really matters on Russian Captures, but the flat buttplate stock is correct for pre-1941 rifles, and so is the lack of a sight hood. Sight hoods were retrofitted to many early rifles later int he war, and the Russian parts blender just slapped any random...

With the stock redone, I think we are past the authenticity point. Also, this is a shooter, given its current condition. I picked up a nice, externally unnumbered Sauer stock, and was thinking of getting the metal redone and dropping it in that.

Yea, those pictures are from when I got it. I sent the stock to Jeffrey Walmsley and the rifle got kroil+bronze wool treatment. It looks better, but i was still thinking of having it redone.

So Home Depot and Brownells to the rescue?

I have an all matching (sans the mag floor plate) CE41 that was defiently neglected and put away wet. If I were ever to have it refinished, who could do this and make it look the closest to the original bluing? Yes, I know, once done it will ruin it, etc, etc, etc. Sure, we can have that...

Yea, but then it’s Louisiana. The feds probably just feel sorry for anyone in that state and let the bc slide…

It would surely look better in this..

Sauer made rifle. https://photos.imageevent.com/badgerdog/generalstorage/piclinks/Sauer.pdf ,1937 (duhh, was multitasking and had faulire in brain-finger connection :) ) Is the remainign metal matching as ar as serial numbers? If so, it may be worth restoration, if not, then maybe hang it...

Thanks. Everything was apart , that’s why I asked. This was a big bag of Mauser bits I’m sorting through .

So is my assumption correct? Fn made bolt for Byf 44 ? The extractor has Austria stamped underneath, is that also appropriate or it it some random extractor ?

Box of parts also had this , late was bolt. From my research , FN made bolt for byf44 , right ?

No serials, only Waa stamps , what are these ?
