K98 parts?

[xopher]

Just received my Israeli mauser in the mail and I noticed a few parts are missing:

Front sight hood
Cleaning rod
Sling

Any idea where I might be able to find some of these? I'd prefer the Israeli counterpart to keep everything original but I'll settle for german too!

Thanks in advance!

Izzy slings can be found on EBAY. As can the hoods and cleaning rods. For authenticity purposes Israeli made sight hoods have holes from side to side and look different from German hoods but both should fit. If you buy a repro cleaning rod make sure the threads fit properly before buggering up your rifle, some don't.

Israelis did not use the cleaning rods, Israeli produced stocks do not even have a rod channel drilled for them.
