    I did buy 2 of those Gew98M's years back via mail order. Both in nice, mint condition, but both had bores only fair-good. I guess all of the German Army Gew98's were rebuilt 1934/35 prior to large scale production of the Kar98kicon. I haven't seen one for sale in years. Nice keepers, glad I kept both of mine.

    Hello c&rfan, i searched for a museum in Amberg. There is really a City museum with an exhibition of the royal bavarian rifle factory. Then there is an museum in Ingolstadt, the bavarian army museeum with themes from the midage til WWII. The last is a normal museum with a standard exihibition. Both seem to be interresting. Here is a link to the Ingolstadt museum, but text is only in german. If you use Google you can translate the website or use Babelfish translator.

    Bayerisches Armeemuseum Ingolstadt

    Regards

    Gunner
