The other mausers a beater, I wanted to buy something to learn on, things like general disassembly, trigger replacement, perhaps some light metal work, change out a few parts, and I didn't want to do that with my Brno or other rifles, its a 30.06, thought that was a good caliber for test purposes, aw what the heck, Ill put up some photos, please remember, I haven't done ANYTHING to it yet, this is how I bought it, Id like to smooth out some of the rough edges. Though it shoots really really well.

I dont know what any of the other marking mean (still waiting for them books!) but I really like the font (is that the correct term on a rifle?) that the KAR 98 is written in.
