A rare late war Mauser Oberndorf K98k.

[jbmauser]

Here is a pretty rare K98k from Mauser Oberndorf. It has a couple features that combined make for a rare rifle. It is the latest known hand stamp series and is built using a Mauser Borsigwalde supplied receiver. The really uncommon part of the rifle is the stock. The Mauser Oberndorf made semi-Kriegsmodell stocks are pretty scarce and this is the only hand stamp series I'm aware of in this configuration. No doubt there are more but definitely few and far between.

Other interesting features include an Astrawerke bolt and bayonet lug, e/37 safety, e/4 front action screw and sintered metal front band.

My goodness. That is a dilly! I still have that 98 I will bring by some day for you to have a gander at and give me your opinion.

I just scooped a Maltby 1941 No. 4 with a round cocking knob and low cut wood on the rh side.. Not as special as the one you have just posted, though.

Thanks for sharing those photos - gorgeous!

Great dual tone! An MB receiver is a good addition to your collection.

Buttplate is in the white as they all are. It's just patina that you're seeing.
