I suppose we are in the same boat. I have documented my small collection pretty with known details and purchase price so those who will dispose of them will have a place to start. I will try to impress the fact that I wnat them to have a good home.In reality it will not matter at that point but if they can reassure me now I will sleep better.
New drama on the Gew 98. I disassembled the bolt last night only to have the rusted tip of the firing pin broke off. Anyone have a good source for the correct firing pin? The good news is it is only the second part I have found that is not numbered to the rifle. A bit of reasearch indicates fireing pins are interchangeable on the Gew 98 and K98. Is this correct?
