Mauser K98 'Sniper' Rifle

The K98, based on the on the Gew 98 used during WWI, was the standard Nazi issue weapon of WWII. This is example is an interesting one. It has a wartime dated receiver coded 'dou 45' meaning that it was produced in WWII at a Czech factory under German occupation. Beyond this, it has no Nazi markings, suggesting it was either sanitised post war or it was a wartime reciever used on a post-war build. It is chambered in 7.62mm NATO rather than the usual 7.92mm, although may have started life in 7.92mm with a later conversion. It is fitted with a nice Weaver Micro-Trac scope which although isn't marked as such, is probably around 4 x32. This is fitted to a nice quality Leupold mount. In really nice condition with lovely polished stocks. EU deactivation with a moving bolt and moving trigger (under spring pressure), but without the ability dry fire or field strip. Sorry - no international sales. Call our freephone credit card sales hotline to buy this item now with your credit or debit card - 0800 772 3499. Proof of ID and age will be required prior to the despatch of this item.
