Czech 98k 'winter trigger'
Have seen this rifle at the gun shows for the last year and a half, was always priced a bit more than I wanted to pay. Well today it had a new owner, and a much lower price, so I decided to snatch it up. It is, I believe, a post war Czech BRNO 98k with the 'winter trigger'. The bolt is definitely not the original, as it is straight, but the interesting thing about it is that it appears to be in a 7mm VZ24 stock. The rifle appears to have been in this stock for quite a long time, and it fits it like a glove. This rifle is not import marked anywhere, scrubbed receiver top, two small Czech lions, and the barrel bears the 'dot 13' in a shield. Sling appears to be correct and original. Would appreciate any thoughts on it!
Not everybody knows this:
There is (was?) an Ernst Neuenschwander in Walliswil, which is in the district of Oberaargau in the Canton of Bern. Switzerland, not Bohemia!
So what is this doing on the sling of a sort-of-Vz24-ish rifle?
Curiouser and curioser :confused:
