Beutiful!!!!! Moar details please. Picked it up from Todd over at Family Firearms & Finishes. He often gets the pick of the litter w/ RC mausers. A very stand-up guy w/ a great reputation. Rifle is a 98k made at Berlin-Lubecker Machinenfabrick un Werke in 1941 for the German army(Heer). It probably went to the Eastern front where it was caputured,stripped,and re-arsenaled. The barrel,reciever and front sight base are matching. Thats it. The stock could be a early Lubeck or J.P Sauer. The bore is excellent, like a mirror and groups very nice. |

i was gonna ask how the bore is, how it shoots but i just saw that you covered that.
what kind of groups does it get? and if you shoot corrosive ammo, be very sure to clean it well afterwards, ASAP. i use the windex with ammonia in it to remove the corrosive primer material. price? i would be very happy with that rifle if i were you. is the front sight base slotted for a sight hood? here is my vet bringback / bubba / rescue ( not an RC ) that i posted in the other thread, repro sling / cleaning rod / sight hood. most numbers match

He is an outstanding vendor. My RC 98K came from him as well. |

I'm sure the gun can do better because I'm not a crack shot. I also use windex afterwards at the range followed by a shot of Rem oil. Once home its normal cleaning. Price was $325. I didn't want that RC"X" stamped on the reciever and because the bore was so good, I paid more. The front sight is slotted for the sight hood. cda |
