Dear Ian; The bolt that you are sowing in the video is very pretty much like the Streyr Mannlingher Schoenauer 1903 carbine. I have one and thanks to you and your viedeo I could finally today ( may 25 2015 at 8.50 P.M) take apart the bolt just to find out that the bolt iside is in pristine conditon. Thank Ian, carry on with your work, it is wonderfull!!!!!!!!
I have watched hours worth of your videos and greatly they have improved. Keep it up! I really enjoy learning about the history of guns. The only piece of history i own is a pre1900 double barrel percussion shotgun with no name that has been in the family for years and is believed to been made in Belgium.
I hope you review the 35M and 43M in a future video, I am completely unfamiliar with this rifle and its always interesting to see Hungarian weaponry from an era when they were a vestige of their former imperial past.
Ian, I just picked up a nice G98/40 but the striker spring is a little weak, A standard Mauser spring is shorter and wider than the one on the G98, do you happen to know a Spring that is the same as the G98/40 spring That is available? Perhaps a earlier Mauser? Thanks Dave (oldcarjunkie)

Matthew Fauria Yup, I will be posting the full video here on the 11th (and on the 10th at Full30.com).
Forgotten Weapons Based Ian thank you.
Thanks for the video! I have a 35m and could never get the front of the bolt disassembled. Now I'm cleaning grease from 1940 lol.
I was just about to comment and say it kind of reminds me of the mosin but you beat me to it haha.
Timely! I just bought a 35M.
great video, i want to see the review of the 35m and the 43m on the 11 th. saludos from argentina.

Can't wait for an other auction to so i can get my fwf (forgotten weapons fix )
I'm Surprised that No 35M, 43M's Turned up on the Surplus Market once the Iron
Curtain came down.
BigBossManBBQ They were imported in the 1950s into the US.
Seamus Exactly from Austria No Doubt.
BigBossManBBQ Large numbers of Hungarian troops surrendered in Germany and Denmark in 1945.
looks hell of a lot easier to disassemble than a Mauser 98 or Mosin bolt
michael johnson have you ever disassembled a mosin bolt? its literally just turn, pull, unscrew.
Xtorin O'hern disassembly isn't hard but reassembly can be a pain
line up, press, screw, i suppose i am a little bias because i own a mosin and do it all the time
its just the having to press down on something hard while trying to screw. I own one but don't take the bolt apart all that often
i will admit i did have a tough time the first few times i did it
My wife hates this channel. After almost every video, I go around and see if I can get the subject for myself.
I suppose it is as good as my video.
Rrrrrrrrruuuuuunnnnnn
Is it me, or has Forgotten Weapons gone down hill lately?
Good video. Thanks Ian :)
