Sauer & Sohn Mauser Mod 98 Bolt-Action Rifle – 8mm, Military German 1942 K98k
Description
This Mauser Mod 98 is a classic full-size bolt-action military rifle with the rugged lines and proven action that made the 98 pattern famous around the world. Based on the photos, this rifle retains its military-style wood stock, hooded front sight arrangement, tangent rear sight, cleaning rod, and leather sling. The receiver is marked “Mod 98,” and visible wartime-style proof marks add to its historical appeal.
The rifle shows honest age and handling throughout, with wear to the wood, finish loss on metal components, and visible stock marks that are consistent with a surplus military arm. The wood appears to have a crack or separation near the buttstock sling cutout, so that should be clearly disclosed in the final listing. The bolt, receiver, and several components also appear to share matching or repeated numbers in the photos, though full matching status should be confirmed before advertising it as such.
This is a strong candidate for the buyer who wants a real Mauser 98 with character, history, and field-ready looks rather than a polished safe queen.

After seeing an advertisement on Guns international for a 1940 K 98 I decided to call the shop for more information. I was skeptical because not all serial numbers were photographed. I asked for the serial numbers in certain places on the rifle which they happily checked for me and assured me that the rifle was all matching. I decided to place the order on their website. When I received the rifle, I verified all serial numbers were matching, which it was, down to the floor plate and trigger guard screws. The bore was in great shape as well. It was a pleasure doing business with these guys very happy with my purchase, highly recommend
