    I have no idea, I'm a Bren collector and have very little knowledge of German weapons. The only reason I posted the video of the Yugoslavian Mauser is that it had the best image of the part I could find.

    I beieve they look similar but the yugo is .25" shorter. I found this post on another forum which is helpfull.

    Differences between German K98 and Yugo 24/47?

    I think you could do with finding someone with a G98 to compare parts. If your parts came from a WW1 battlefield I would say deffo a German G98 mauser.

    I think the third looks like piece of grenade or some type of explosive.

    pic's two and three show, to my mind, the the top of a Dutch hand grenade. I think the "Scherpe nr.1" of WW2 vintage.

    The neck of the grenade should show a coarse thread where the cap has been screwed on and off for arming and throwing.
