Original Mauser Oberndorf S/42 K98k, cal. 1937

 
Used Weapon

Bolt-action rifle, S/42 K98k, cal. 8x57IS, manufactured by Mauser Oberndorf, 1937, Reichsadler stamped, unfortunately not matching numbers. The 98 system is probably one of, if not the most popular and most imitated weapon systems of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Introduced in 1898 as the standard armament of the Imperial German Army, the Gewehr 98 provided valuable service and formed the backbone of German armament. During the war, the characteristics that made the rifle so popular became evident: robustness, reliability, and precision.

These advantages made the 98 system the unrivaled favorite when it came to rearming Germany. Without hesitation, the carbine version of the 98 system was introduced as the standard armament. Once again, the 98 system formed the backbone of German armament.

The weapon presented is in good condition; however, the barrel is already rough and no longer suitable for very good sporting results.

It originates from the production of the Mauserwerke Oberndorf (S/42).

The rifle is marked with 1937 (pre-war, peace production), as well as many other contemporary stamps such as the Reichsadler over swastika.

The weapon has a valid Cologne proof.
