			I picked up a 1939 K98 captured gun in excellent condition, one of the Russian reworks.  The bolt does not match but everything else does.  The swastikas have been punched out, I understand this was only done in the early days, too many were captured later to bother.  My bore is bright but I have not shot targets with it to see how accurate it is. 
 
I bought this gun from a dealer friend in England along with a 1928A1 Russian lend-lease gun, a '43 Ppsh41, 1916 Nagant and 1942 TT33.  I was told last week that they have found a stash of K98 sniper rifles - excitement is building.
