Hey everyone, I recently obtianed a 1907 Gew 98 and would like some more info, I have already enthralled myself with information on the Gew 98 rifle but have found little information on pre-WWI Gew 98's
some more details:
Waffenfabrik Mauser A-G Oberndorf A/N 1907
It has all of the imperial german markings with the imperial eagle and proof marks on the reciever
Serial Number: 4593 and 1809 which has been crossed out and renumbered to match the rifle. the barrel/Reciever are 4593 and the bolt has been forced matched along with the rest of the hardware on the rifle being 09 to match the lined out bolt - which it looks done by the factory.
it also has a "Roller Coaster" rear sight
can post more pictures on request
Any and all information would be much appriciated!
