*MAUSER 98K SNIPER WITH QUICK DETACHED MOUNT. SN 8764. Cal, 8mm, 24″ bbl. Late war 98K Rifle in sniper configuration with dialytan 4X Scope marked “bek”. Rifle manufactured 1945 by “BCD” (J.P. Sauer). Scope mount has eagle over “359” proof marks on both base bottoms, which is attached to receiver and on slide on upper rail. Upper rail mount also has serial number which matches barrel serial number. Bolt serial number also matches, as does extended thumb safety with last two digits of serial number on it. Forend cap and barrel band are of the stamped and welded type as seen on late war 98Ks. Mag floor plate and receiver are well marked “gnw”. Wood of stock and hand guard is of the laminated type, smooth but without any oil finish. The cupped buttplate has a crosshatched pattern on rear. CONDITION: Overall finish and appearance is excellent. Barrel and receiver have smooth gray finish overall with some evidence of patina forward of the barrel serial number, and on the barrel forward of the end cap. The scope mount and rail is of a deep blue as are the actual scope rings, which appear like metal bands wrapped around the scope to hold it in the saddle of the lower scope ring. Likewise the extended safety switch and bolt removal lever are also of a deep dark blue. The bore is excellent, shiny and bright. This rifle appears “unissued” except for three slight dings in the lower scope mount, left side. 4-42156 JWK21 (1,000-2,000)
