Little update: Some test fitting and bluing and it should be done and ready to be sent back. Really really excited for this one. I’m gonna need a sling and drum for this this before it shows up.

Hi Learjet, The PU is believed to be a real armorer’s conversion PU sniper. I’ve got pics of it before I converted it back to sniper configuration and posted it in this thread below. Hope this helps! https://www.k98kforum.com/threads/k98-pu-field-armorer-sniper.56137/#post-437189

Received my KM High turret yesterday. Very very happy with this one and excited to have my Mauser trio of LT, HT and late HT completed. As always, restorations are not always practical financially but it’s worth it to me to keep them from ending up in a scrap pile. Another sniper receiver saved...

@ditch68 @yellowkid awesome cars guys! Jeff funny enough here is my Malibu that is my driving project. 69 manual bench seat with a long way to go…but it sure is fun.

Unfortunately no, I had considered attempting to cut some to match out of beech laminate sheets but never got around to trying ordering it, If I remember correctly they only came in bulk or giant sheets

Awesome work, I did a similar project on a zf41 kriegsmodell stock awhile back and was going really well until the missing pieces of laminate on the outside of the stock like yours. How did you color match it to the stock? These 3 sections on mine are an eye sore. Great job again!

Here you go, hopefully this is helpful

BYF 45 High turret 6249 no letter block receiver

It’s being made with BRP parts (partial bolt and their grip stick once the gen 2 partial bolts come back in stock). Should be a whole lot of fun once it‘s finished!

After having it for over 2 years now I finally sent my mg42 kit off to a builder a few hours from the house in Oklahoma. Shouldn’t be too much longer and very excited to get this one back. Any opinions on finish? The other 43 CRA’s I’ve seen were blued which is more so what I’m thinking. I know...

Gosh, think he could’ve D&T’d a few more holes???

Merry Christmas everyone!

This one wasn’t a fun resto on the wallet but absolutely worth it in my opinion. I have a soft spot for these sporter (or sometimes receiver rescues). I can shoot them without worrying too much about breaking anything and they will stay in my collection. Very rewarding bringing them back to life.

UPDATE: After spending about a year with Vaughn waiting on a barrel hunt, the byf 43 bmj low turret is complete and back home. Very happy with it and can’t wait to get out and shoot it. As mentioned earlier in the thread when pictured next to my AR43 L block HT restoration, it started out as a...

That’s really awesome Tiger, thank you so much for that info! I got that rifle from a forum member a few years ago. I wonder how many owners it’s had between now and then

Also interested! I have a nice CRA 42 kit I’ve been sitting on for 3 years that needs built

I doubt I’ll ever own one but for me it’d have to be the SSDC with the focal adjustment dow. Yours is extra cool with the flat buttplate Matt, really nice rifle. The High Turret with an Ajack is in second just because it was my first sniper and a pleasure to shoot.

Yes, Jack posted it FS here the other day and I bought it from him

Restoration #3 in the works. I’ve had a couple parts for this one lying around and got the receiver in from Jack today. Low turret is currently with Vaughn (waiting on a correct barrel) and the search goes on for a barrel for this one. Excited to finish the LT but especially excited for this one...

Guys, I ended up grabbing this single rune from Chris (86toyotacentury) and although he may not be a k98 guy he is absolutely a stand up dude and great seller. Packaged like a tank and he paid for shipping out of pocket w/ great communication. Wasn’t holding my breath to add SS rifles to my...
