Selling my Spandau Gewehr 98 I got a while back I bought in hopes of finding a stock for it and turning it into a shooter, but plans have changed. I believe it's sitting in a Czech VZ98/22 stock. The standard Gew98 handguard won't work on this stock.
The rifle is in great working condition. I have put 20 or 25 rounds thought it. Barrel has enough muzzle wear to take a bullet, but seems to have decent rifling the rest of the way.
everything seems to work as it should, but basically all mismatch parts. All metal parts minus the butt swivel and Band retainers are Imperial German marked! Only the barrel, receiver, and front sight match. Bolt matches itself, minus the safety. The finish is pretty dull, with some pitting on top of the barrel where the bands and rear of the handguard sit.
Can provide more pictures if needed.
