K98 Information

[Badger]

This article was originally published in the KCN in their August 1990 newsletter as: THE GUSTLOFF K98k By Bob Jensen and was edited by Peter Kuck 06/11/2002

In 1941 the code used to designate Gustloff was changed from “337” to the letter code “bcd” Laminated stocks and handguards continued to be exclusively used. The date code was changed from a four-digit date to a two-digit date.
