Stock may be a yugo replacement, or it may simply be a rack number. Assuming the metal bits all match, a first glance says they don't appear renumbered. Perhaps a matching sporteriszed rifle restored with a yugo stock?

[Sigismund]

from what the pictures show, the stock seems to be the only part that has seen post war experiences. You never know, there could be receiver markings.

I have come across a Brit captured k98k, which was all matching, and the only brit marking was on the stock.

[Skippy]

Looks like there's an SAFN-49 for sale as well, could be interesting.

Can't attend this one. The OSA 3 gun match is that weekend.

[Andy]

I can't attend unless I want to test the waters being a single man (the Eganville show is this weekend and I have indulged myself in other ways too).

There's always Absentee.

[tiriaq]

I plan on attending Eganville on Sunday. Saturday of this weekend is a one day shoot at OSA.

Switzer's have added some pics and new items to their Aug 25th auction web page.....

Item 1685 - Serial # 9302T MAUSER GEW98 8MM J.P. SAUER 1917

I believe the bolt is missmatched to the receiver....

BTW, the date in the listing says 1917, but the date on the receiver is 1916.
