The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

Today was a good day-negotiated the acquisition of a Czech K98, Spanish Mauser of a model yet to be positively identified and a No. 4 Mk 1 Enfield with a Mk 2 rear sight. The Enfield needs a follower and spring for the magazine and the K98 needs two machine screws. The Spanish Mauser is complete including the cleaning rod. All I know about it is that it’s chambered in 7x57 Mauser, based on the import mark (most of which is illegible). The Enfield and K98 passed the headspace inspection-the Spanish Mauser has not been checked as I don’t yet have the gauges for it.

Of course, now I need a No. 4 Mk 1 with a Mk 3 sight and other variations of the other guns. I also need the dies for reloading 7x57 Mauser and brass.

I only have one question. Why post a Mauser post in the Mosin collectable forum? LOL

Milsurps are milsurps. At the price I got them at, they were reasonable, especially considering current conditions.

Looking forward to the pics, Walker.

Did I miss something ?

The title of this section of the forum is: "Collectible Military Firearms"

Are K98s no longer collectible?

If not I guess I have to get rid of mine.

I like the Mauser k98. Look forward to seeing pics of the rifles!

Nice group of rifles

A nice trio of old workhorses.

Prices were negotiable and reasonable. My friend's son is also a collector so I get everything that he passes on. Maybe someday I'll see if he's willing to sell the two Army jeeps he has in the back lot.
