Mauser’s manufacturing code was byf, not bcd (bcc as you say) Lots of inconsistencies with these rifles, so many I’m not even going to begin to point out. These are definitely mix match masters and not original configurations. It hurts to watch this guy talk about them because he clearly knows very little about the rifle’s history.
Hi Christopher, thanks for watching and the comments. We appreciate your feedback. The purpose of this video was to present our rifles available for sale at the shop. We appreciate the history of such items are open to debate and everyone is entitled to their opinion. Regards.
@sallyantiques none of what he says is opinion, it's fact. All of these rifles presented are fakes and the guy in the video has absolutely no clue what he's talking about. I'd hope that a company that sells rifles such as these would do their research and would be truthful and factual with what they are trying to sell, but these days, too many bullshit artists are out there trying to make a buck by scamming the uninformed.
I believe the code was actually changed throughout the war. I just received one as a gift and it's one of the Krieg-something or other variety, the ones that were being mass produced towards the end of the war and mine has "dot" code on it. It also shows the full year of 1944. Based on my research it means it was manufactured in a German occupied manufacturing plant in Czechoslovakia called Waffen Werke, Brunn.
Nice collection. Is the 1st rifle stock made towards the end of the war because it doesn't have the disc take down, only a hole drilled at edge of the stock and its a cupped buttplate so would be laminated right?
Many mix and match on these "so call" K98 sniper rifles. The first one is very interesting, it claim to have 37' barrel / receiver on late war cz stock with early H band, bolt handle shape is quite unusual, cz 527??. The HT mounts with top mounting screws is quite interesting, repro? Some with Sniper Bolt Safety are very interesting too, real deal??
Question, Im seeing 'x' on most receivers and also the electro stencil force matching the bolts. Are these all Russian Capture K98 platforms built to look like original snipers? Or did the Soviet Union also capture lots of Sniper Variations throughout the conflicts on the Eastern Front?
@@Tuggernutz5 They are marked from the Soviet Union as a captured weapon. I owned a 98k from 1943 with a mounted "zielvier"scope. It signed with the same "cross". On the gunstock the individuel weapon number was marked the same way. Greatings from Berlin🙋♂️🍀👍
@@Tuggernutz5 It's a pleasure for me to talk about a famos weapon like the 98k or the .30 M1 Carbine for example. In case for help about some details I share my little informations with communities far in this planet and try to communicate with my poor school English to get in touch with another weapon owner. It's always very interesting what happened in other countries with our captured guns of WW II and their individuel owners. Greatings to California Cost from the ex-devided City of Berlin🙋♂️🍀 Sven.
Very awesome rifles, I do have to point out that a lot of these here are not accurate snipers. The years and fabrics dont match the scopes. For instant that k98 sniper with the ZF4 scope which was also mounted on a g43, mp43. That was basicly a prototype to test that scope on a k98. But only a couple were made in 1945 so it is very unlikely to be attached to a early k98. (Unless it iss a re-issue) even though this was not all accurate. It was still a nice video😁
Interesting collection. I see all the numbers are not matching and really don't get why these repros are making soo much money. I know the supply and demand economics will always win over but why when the sum of the parts is far less than the asking price they fetch so much I will never fathom. Shame they are all deacts, there a real market for live firing examples of these now. I'll be making a note to pop in if I'm in the area.

@@sallyantiques well… Christopher is right. A lot of bad info and incorrect rifles in this video.

Better check the Pete Senich book. There were no 41 date, factory made swept back snipers. The ZF4 scope didn't even exist yet.
Your “expert” is making a lot of mistakes.

Nice presentation and great collection you have.
Thank you kindly!
Sorry never heard so much untruth about K98 sniper rifles…
Better do some funded research before doing so much bla bla on youtube
Thanks for your feedback and watching!
Nice but the Longhair guy is certainly no expert.
And you shouldn't be able to rack the bolt back and forth on an empty magazine .The bolt stop on the magazine follower has been ground off.
Nice gun
Thanks!
Mauser....😍
Is the 1937 rifle a turret mount? I thought those were introduced in 1939/40.
Feel free to call us or email if you are interested in the item. Thanks
Guy called Jerry talking about German rifles 🤔
I’m surprised the presenter wasnt called Tommy
He is................😂

Thanks for watching Kelly, yes they are the real deal! Contact us if you would like to know more.

Side note: Im in the US so the most common models you see out here are just force match iron sighted K98s.
