2/27/19 - This is a fantastic and all matching example of a Nazi Mauser K98 from 1944. All numbered parts are matching, including stock and handguard. The bluing on metal parts is excellent with minimal actual finish loss, but some oxidation or patina in various areas. Near mint bore - hardly looks used. Fantastic stock with no cracks. Original cleaning rod and sight hood. Only flaw is the stock may have been very lightly sanded.
