1918 Amberg Imperial Gewehr 98 Mauser SOLD!


Recommended Posts

I never shoot this so I decided to move it along.

It is a 1918 dated Amberg (Bavaria) Gewehr 98 Mauser. 8mm. No import markings, coveted 3 acceptance marks, Imperial Crown intact. Mostly numbers match, in that the barrel, reciever, stock, and bottom metal match. The floorplate and bolt group do not. It does pass headspacing. The bore is as expected, dark but with clear, deep rifling all the way to the crown. It is 100% intact with no sporterization. 

Here is some reference to the markings:

The only current retail references I have found are to Royal Tiger Imports who only has 2 left and they are in very rough condition. They are asking $1k which I think is utterly ridiculous. 

This one is in much better shape.

Asking a firm $800 or trade.

Trade items I am interested in are Kalashnikovs, 47 or 74, no US made ones. Romania prefered as these are my favorites. AKM, RPK, or PSL.

Be aware though, I think the current retail on these is just a ridiculous as the current retail on 103 year old Mausers so the trade would be straight across for a like condition com-block AK.

I am north/west of Nashville between Clarksville and Paris. Willing to travel some for the right deal.

Please PM offers and lets discuss.

Enjoy!
