Mauser Sporter 98 Cal: 8mm SN: 8568
High polished blued bolt-action non-detachable box magazine fed German WWII military rifle with a 24" barrel, hand made rudimentary wood stock and factory sights. Metal finish is bright with no defects other than some ripples from buffing. Bolt body, shroud and safety are in-the-white and all the numbers match. Bottom metal is late war (qnw) with stamped sheet metal floorplate and has been blued over buffed pitting. Buttplate is polished blued with a few dings. Wood stock seems to have been made from a 2x6 piece of lumber and had the cheek rest spliced on to it. There is a crack near the pseudo-schnabel forend tip and a few small scratches and rubs. Bore is shiny with strong rifling. Action works well. Condition is excellent. *Modern Firearm*
