You cant beat the GERMAN K98. Sure, the other rifles are wonderful guns....but you cant beat the K98 for handling. Best all around rifle in the world.

CR107 & Joker - both your bnz's are Radom receivers assembled at Steyr. Are they all matching? I'd bet not. Import marked? Sarge

My older brother sent two Mausers home from Germany in 1945. Gave one to me and kept the other.The one I got was a 98,but I had it sporterised(?) some years back but it is still 8mm. My brother passed away last year,and just recently my nephew (His son)gave me the other. A CZ/vz24 still all original 8mm. My favorite however is a Siamese Mauser that was rebuild and sold by a company in New York (Inter-Arm-Co) I think it was called,back in the 70`s. Only thing original is the action. Has a Douglas Barrel,Fajin Stock,Williams open sights, and oh yes,it is 45/70 Govt.cal. And I love it ! Bill |

Got a VZ24 to add to the collection now! Ex-Sniper as I understand it. Don't know a lot about them, was hoping some of our fine Mauser members would be able to shed some light on the topic as well. Here is a YT vid of it I posted.

Iron-Colonel; Looks like a pretty good machine to me. It is almost a twin to the one I mentioned above that I just got from my nephew.Mine still has the front sight guard, and has not been ground down for another sight system. I have not shot mine since my brother sent it home in 1944,then took it with him to Ohio,but will get some shells loaded soon, and get it out again. I am not all that much up on CZ`s, but understand that they are as good as most any 98 Mauser you will find,and better than some. |
