K98 147 code

[Papahound]

147 code was produced by JP Sauer in the Suhl region of Germany 🇩🇪
I honestly don?t know much about k98?s but she is a beauty 
Blueing appears to be in great shape and was a very nice gift from a friend , another great addition to the surplus pile , getting expensive to shoot these days 

Wishing everyone a blessed day :

Excellent gift! 

Late 1938 production, as the S has been dropped from S/147, and it has the late 1938 receiver inspection firing proof pattern of E/359, 2 x E/37.

No, my memory isn't good enough to store all of these details, this info is from Karem and Steves Karabiner 98k?

Does the bolt match? Any stock markings remaining?

All numbers on the rifle match even the small hardware , all numbers on the bolt match are matching but not to the reciever , blueing is still in great shape even the markings on the stock are crisp

Does the bolt match? Any stock markings remaining?

What you've described is commonly referred to as a "bolt mismatch", basically the next best thing to a matching rifle. The E/26 on the extractor collar indicates that it's a bolt from a K98k made at Berlin-Luebecker Maschinenfabrik.

The H on the stock is for Heer, army.

That?s interesting to know , most of the ones I have seen that match are bringing big money , I?ve actually seen some that have the stocks sanded and look rough but this one seems to have nice curb appeal , even some of the Russian Captures are starting to climb , always a nice addition to a surplus collection
