    K98 New Buyer Guide

    Thanks for the welcome! I appreciate the insight into a time frame. I just know I want it to be a war time k98 and not a kriegsmodell. Preferably when they were a higher quality build. I'll check that era out in the books now.

    This is actually something I honestly never thought of. It was really cool having a replacement barrel, but I never thought of it's value. I'll look into that as I'm wanting to save up for a K98 or Luger. Thanks for the idea!

    My First P.38

    I got super lucky. To my shame I didn't even know it was an FN frame when I got it. It was an armslist deal from a guy a couple states away. He sent me a ton of pictures, but none with the FN waffenamt clearly visible. When I received it I was taking it apart and giving it a good cleaning when I...

    My First P.38

    This is my first German milsurp that I was able to pick up a couple weeks ago. The story the guy told me is that his great uncle was in WW2 and picked it up in Germany.
