The KAR 98 A was introduced for genral use in 1908 and in 1911 the Kar 98 AZ was introduced bith were issued to Calvary , Cyclist, Sharpsooter's MG troops Train Zepplin ground crews Arttilery and pioneer.s The difference between the A and AZ is mainlt the noze cap and the site. The trops complained mainly of 2 thing's the kick from the shorter barrel and the new sight made them crank ther head up moer and expose it.
There was one more nation that had riflemen and no influence from anyoe else . During the napoleomic period the portagese had Cocodores very colorful , not tradtional rifleman uniform's .
Stilll looking forward to the Napoleonic period kit .The Baker is my favorite rifle of that era. I have seen a couple in collection's up here .
