Finally found a VG condition all matching Gewehr 98. I've only been looking for 5 or 6 years.
This one is a Danzig 1916 number 4839t
Strong blue, some spotting to the bright parts, sharp cartouches, all matching.
In front of the receiver is stamped RI813. Can anyone help identify that unit?
I was a little shocked with what has come out of the bore. Lots of copper fouling and extremely dirty. that said, very strong rifling and a pretty good bore overall. I am guessing this is a 8x57 though I can't find that stamped anywhere.
