Howdy Team,

I bought this 8x57 M98 Actioned Stutzen last night.
I hope the photos are OK.
From the photos you can see its a twin trigger Stutzen with a Khales Scope with a duplex reticle
The scope itself only has up and down adjustment
Left and right is actually at the base of the rear mount

The proof marks I believe tell me it was Nitro Proofed in Prague Czechoslovakia

But thats exhausted my knowledge.
eg where was it made? who had a Czeck licence if any? when was it made? etc etc

There does not appear to be any other marks on it (not even 8x57 or 8 mm) although I have not removed it from the stock as the SAPOL (SA POLICE) approval has not gone through yet so its not actually in my safe yet.

Its got the thumb groove on the left hand side of the action and the stripper clip groves.
I did not measure the barrel but it looks like about 22 inches

Its got a folding leaf rear sight

Any help appreciated?

Cheers
