I noticed this video today. Mark Novak of Anvil Gunsmithing is going to do a video of a full teardown, refurb, chamber casting, etc. to hopefully put it back in service.
I thought this was pretty interesting.
Apparently a proposed Gew98 substitute with Schlegelmilch actionn: https://www.rockislandauction.com/de...rimental-rifle Some dummy has apparently buffed, blued and steel wooled the rifle, the better to appeal to the educated buyers!
Can Schlegelmilch be credited with inventing or first producing a rifle whose bolt locks into the barrel itself?
