Kar98a help

This Kar98a is a German icon

/Polish rifle, ground smooth on receiver. No date no nothing. I see a small 7.9 stamp, that is all.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

No luck with Springfield Sporters. They do have Kar98a parts but, no wood at all. Nothing from Fox in England icon

(?) or Poland(?). Anybody ever hear back from him?

And a lovely one at that.

I'd e-mail him again. He got back to me very quickly and in good detail. I had several communications with him regarding the stamps, type of grooves, etc.

I did manage to get through. I did order a Kar98a handguard from him. He said it would be made this week/next week. The inventory he has looks decent. He could make nice Springfield '03 "C" stocks and find a real market. I wonder if he knows that?

OK, I did order a handguard from Poland. But I haven't seen anything since. No idea how long this takes.

**Aragorn243** · 01-10-2017 03:02 PM

I'm under the impression that they make them when ordered and don't have a stock of them.

**Calif-Steve** · 01-12-2017 02:13 PM

I ordered the Handguard before Christmas. Haven't seen anything since. I sent off an email 2 days ago and am still waiting for his response. I think he makes the wood as the orders come in. Still waiting.
