5 out of 5 stars A Must Own!   January 9, 2008
The most informative book about the k98 I have ever read. The book identify's each k98 rifle ever made from, year and place of manufacture with picture and identifying marks and locations! This allows you to know when and where that old rifle grandpa had came from. Also protect you from some one trying to sell you a original, or matching rifle that was built from parts, They still shoot good, just you should not have to pay a fortune to get one. The history and things you learn about the production is another reason to buy the book. Amazing archive photos and blue prints,and diagrams! How long did it take him to do the research for this book?!?


5 out of 5 stars Excellent book for those looking for info on this rifle   February 28, 2005

I purchased this book and its successor. Having just finished the first volume I must say that I learned just about everything I wanted to know about this rifle. It has excellent illustrations. It gives timeline information as the rifle evolved over the years from pre war Germany right up to the end of WWII.

This is a must buy for collectors.

Now I need to read vol 2 Sniper Variations of the German K98k rifle.
