I think you've got that correct.

A lot of Kar98az have been fitted with K98kicon bolts, and so you may get an offer of a trade from such a Kar98az owner if you advertise in the right places, although, your's being a RC it will pressumably have a USSR applied electro-etched serial number on it, which will devalue it somewhat in that regard.
