My 98k Faux Sniper

Before i knew you could buy a long side rail mount reproduction I decided to build this rifle because I saw one like it in the shotgun news and I have always wanted a german sniper rifle.

 

The rings and bases are IOR Valdada EAW style. The scope is an old weaver K4 which is not the correct scope for a german sniper but it was much cheaper and looks right. The original bolt was long gone so I reprofiled a turk bolt and bent it.

 

The stock is a new surplus israeli 98k stock in beach

Milsurp,

 

That's got to be the cleanest K98 I've ever seen! The Germans would have used claw mounts, but those are prohibitively expensive so your EAW mounts accomplish the scope mounting nicely. The stock looks good and so does the metal finish. Fairly accurate for a milsurp too.

 

Well done!

 

Jason
