Gew 98 input please.

[Patrick Chadwick]

A bit of reasearch indicates fireing pins are interchangeable on the Gew 98 and K98. Is this correct?

Yes...
According to the table on P.215 of "The Mauser Bolt Actions"by Jerry Kuhnhausen, the Gew.98 and K98 should be the same. Overall length 7.337", for the standard action body length.

but...
some other members of the M98 family had different firing pin lengths (e.g. for intermediate length and commercial actions).

So be careful to specify the length when ordering! Something recycled from Yugoslavia, for instance, might not fit.
