Who re-built this k98? *New photos*

[Coyote Ugly]

It's not uncommon for EG refurbs done in Czechoslovakia to have RC "X" marks on them. Remember the RC K98's, only about half of them were capture marked. You see the capture marking in about the same proportion on the EG rifles.

It's a typical czech re-work in the post-war Soviet era.

Nice example too.

The Vopo G43 and K43 also have the X (stamped on the LHS receiver) on the reworks (East German) as well. And this one has the EG Crown/N on the barrel.
