*◊ STANDARD-MODELL SHORT RIFLE IN K98k CONFIGURATION.

SN B61574. Cal. 7.92mm. This Standard-Modell rifle features the Mauser banner on both the receiver ring & receiver bridge. The rifle is marked “Standard-Modell” on the receiver side-rail. The matching parts consist of the receiver, rear sight assembly, trigger guard assembly & floorplate assembly. The stock, bolt, bbl bands and handguard are numbered to other rifles. As is appropriate for a Standard-Modell, the front sight post is not cut for a sight hood. Bbl bands are stamped. Cleaning rod is missing. The stock has a side-mounted 98k type sling. Stock lacks the bolt dismount ferrule common to most 98k rifles. The components which bear the Standard-Modell SN “B61574” are in excellent & matching condition, and bear not only German BUG N proofs but post-war proofs as well. These genuine Standard-Modell components present an excellent restoration opportunity. PROVENANCE: Collection of Dr. Geoffrey Sturgess. CONDITION: Retains 92% bluing on metal parts, with most bluing loss appearing on the upper bbl band & bolt. Stock condition is very good, with a few scratches & scrapes. Clearly, the handguard & stock are from different rifles. Bore has strong rifling, but is in need of a good cleaning. Mechanics function perfectly. 4-53148 JJW26 (800-1,600) – Lot 1377
