98k israeli

[Fushigi Ojisan]

Okay, now that I am home, I have some pictures of my ate up Israeli K98

Back shot


Front Band


Receiver markings (Mauser 1936)


Damged/repaired safety with silver solder, was told this was not an Israeli fix


The telltale sign of Guatamalan imports--rust under the wood


More of it


The wood was pretty soft as well, the stock needed to be replaced, luckily the correct ones are still out there. Barrel is a freakin sewer pipe. I wanted an Israeli Mauser real bad, and got a real bad Israeli Mauser
