Hello from Wisconsin.

Picked up a yugo capture k98.
I know since receiver is scrubbed its hard to narrow down a maker or date.

Curious if any of the markings on underside of receiver give any clues.

I can tell you then”G” looking figure (it’s actually an S) indicates a Walther made receiver. Probably was a Sauer used receiver - other makers used Walther parts, however this is an early receiver. My wild guess, S/147 34-36 timeframe.
