Good news.
Awaiting results.
Only because I am not the one looking.
I usually only find what I am seeking after I give up (No 5 Mk1 bayonet) or after I purchase one for to many $s (saw two,yes two Hakim bayonets on the same table this week end bought one hoping it was better than the one I had and payed too much for).
I hear you there...
I paid through the nose for it but it was cheaper than buying the repro stock plus I have all the metal to sell so I'm content. Stock has nice tiger striping and looks good with the exception of one large gouge that could be from a bullet strike. That's what I'm going with anyway. Just popped up on ebay last night. I made him an offer, he countered I accepted. Was one other guy making an offer on it as well so I didn't want to take a chance. I was almost ready to buy the repro but I'm very glad this one came along before I did.
Could we see a few pictures of your KAR 98 stock when it arrives, please, especially of the "bullet strike", thanks.

They are crappy photos but it's what I got.

Yep, you've got a stock...and soon we'll see the whole rifle. That'll be neat. Feels like it was something I completed here...
Expected delivery day of Monday. Can't wait.
