Tell us you aren’t married without telling us you’re not married. Nice collection
I'm married just got a petty cool wife. Haha
@tfusilier44 Same. Some of us chose well, and/or we are the family leaders as we are supposed to be.
This just gave me that spark of inspiration to launch my own historical rifle collection. Of course, I'm years away from this !
Gotta start somewhere
You're going to enjoy it, especially from a historical perspective. Out of my entire collection, military surplus war horses will always be my favorite.
I’m married and I’ve got 4 K98ks’ & 4 Gew 98s’. Very nice & complete collection he’s got there.
Beautiful collection and thanks for the informative comment. I have a Yugo capture with laminate stock, cup buttplate and milled small parts. Looks like the Yugos selected the best parts to remount their 98Ks.
Thanks! Glad you found it informative.
Nice collection and you’ve done an excellent job conserving these storied rifles.
Thanks!
Very nice collection! I love K98's! I have few rarer ones. A svwMB French occupation, a 1941 Obendorf Luftwaffe, and a standard Czech VZ98N. Anyway, your RTI ones cleaned up pretty well I'd say! Nice to see others collections!
That sounds like a great collection, the French occupation one sounds pretty interesting.
I have 1918 Erfurt. I bought it a Sears 45 years ago.
Nice!
I VERY VERY much want a last ditch style Mauser. Hole drilled butt plate and stamped everything with crude welds.
Screws holding the bands on haha definitely my type of rifle.
They are interesting. The Ethiopian contract are a close second, alot of late war features on them.
@@tfusilier44 Oh yes that is exactly why I plan on getting one of them
Priceless collection
Thanks!
Nice collection! I've got two kar98ks myself, one is a DOT1943 Russian capture with it's waffenamts intact and the heavy Russian bluing. It's pretty cool since it has an early war stock, mid-war receiver and barrel, and a late war stamped trigger guard and magazine floorplate. My other one is BYF44, Balkan capture (from what I've read at least) with severely dinged waffenamts and it's exposed metal is pretty much in the white. What is odd is that this one has a matching milled trigger guard and floorplate too. Overall, an excellent video, keep up the good work. 😎👍
Thanks! If the serial number is original its likely because they were using up leftover parts. The stamped vs milled parts were simplifications in production and especially in 1944 its likely they would pair them up as needed to get rifles out the door.
Makes me think of my beautiful Polish wz29 rifle made in 1937 by Radom that I lost in a pawn shop. Nice collection for sure
Thanks!
Awesome collection!
Thanks!
Excellent video! Amazing collection!
Thanks!
A nice collection of the K98k Mausers . I wish I had more , I only have one , a 1938 ,S/243 . It has both the Weimar Eagles & Nazi Eagles stamped on it
That is a pretty nice one though. Is it all matching?
@@tfusilier44 unfortunately it is not . The barrel bands , rear sights , barrel & receiver match with some screws . The mag well & floor plate match , with different numbers for the bolt and import marked by CAI .
@@milsurprifleguy7091 still a nice one, will only appreciate in value.
🏆
@@milsurprifleguy7091 That actually is typical of KAR98's The only matching numbers rifles you find were bring backs.
Glorious!
Those are some nice rifle thanks for sharing
Thanks!
Awesome collection...thanks for sharing! I've got an SWP45 German/Czech/Israeli marked but still in 8mm...it's an odd one.
Interesting, seems it wasn't converted over.
Nice❤
I have a Yugo capture without the crest... Good to see another one here. How common is that. I've not seen many.
It's certainly not the norm. It's possible the early refurbs or certain factories didn't adopt the crests at the same time as others. Or perhaps they didn't bother stamping those for export. Hard to say, I also think the Czechs and/or East Germans may have sold Ethiopia some of the German marked examples.
@@tfusilier44 Mine has no import marks... Got it from an old timer who got it from his father in law back in the 60s. He never fired it.
very cool
I would like one of each, allied & axis powers fire arms. Just can not spend multiple hundreds on each rifle. Any recommendations for less than $200 each retailers? Is that a realistic goal?
Greetings from Germany
Here I am allowed to equip myself with a 7.5 joule air rifle.
A slingshot with an armrest is prohibited
Vc poderia me dizer o nome de todas as variantes da kar98 k
Can I ask what you think of K98k. 8mm mauser by Steyr made under the short lived 660 contract ?Good quality ?
If you can get one it's a rare find so I'd go for it. Steyr was known for their quality.
I just got a 1940 oBO by Mauser Oberndorf, it does have the sight hood though, so I guess 1940's did get them?
Possible. Is it all matching? Did it ever get the front sight base or barrel replaced in its service life? I have seen a couple Russian and Yugo captures that got replacement barrels/rear sight bases.
@@tfusilier44 It's the first rifle I've ever owned. Wanted one since I was 15 and saw it in a WW2 game. I really don't know much about it, it has a decent number of matching part #'s but other than that I cant tell you if it was a russian capture.
How many price
I have 1893
Fatherland
Have a 1941 k98k from the gang here. :)
i have a 1938 k98k i recently bought :D
Are those from rti shootable or display
I've fired all the K98s from RTI minus the swp45. Haven't had a chance to take it to the range yet but with the worn muzzle on it I suspect it will keyhole.
All the others I've tested cycle well and are pretty accurate. I used both PPU 8mm and some German & Yugo made surplus. Some more accurate than others but no keyholes or other issues. The B grade dot 45 I got from them recently has a good bore too, but I'm still finishing that one up.
@@tfusilier44 you are very lucky that they are shootable and fun tion. The ONe k98 i buy from rti has too much headspace and my gun smith deemed as a parts gun… and i bought the original german one and did the hand select bore option so over $1200 just for a parts gun…
@@nicholasfortunato7035 sorry to hear that. Did you contact RTI? I got a Long Branch Enfield from them that was unsafe to shoot and they replaced it for free with a return label.
