chris71 Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 Hello gents, has been a while since I been here. All work and no play But spent three weeks in cornwall working and managed to have a look around a few car boots. I picked up a K98 for £70 with its deactivation paper work. Not all the serial numbers match but its a nice clean gun and the bolt action works fine and dry fires. I managed to get home to leamington spa at the weekend and got to my local car boot where i found a bayonet for the K98. unfortunatly the scabbard and blade do not have matching serials but are contemporary with each other. the bayonet alsohad the frog with it. I paid £45 for the bayonet. Hoping to get home on sunday for a coupleof days so will try to list a couple of pics...chris burr

chris71 Posted September 1, 2009 Author Posted September 1, 2009 Hello again. Here are some photos of the K98 and the bayonet.
muckaroon1960 Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Chris, nice K98 and bayonet. I bought a similar K98 which is a refurb but I cleaned all the varnish off the woodwork and polished it with wax. Looks loads better!
