    Default Gift from my girlfriend. 1941 K98!

    I got my girlfriend to spill the beans, and she sent me these pictures today:

    She got me a bnz 1941 Russian capture K98 for Christmas!

    She doesn't know anything about firearms, but she promised me that it's in really good shape, and the barrel is almost mint. In general, it's really clean and is in great shape.

    She said it's still covered in sticky stuff (cosmoline).







    Once I finally receive it, I'll post some better pics!

    Nice rifle! Are you going to pick up a sight hood, cleaning rod and sling?

    (Tell your girlfriend that she owes me a Luftwaffe helmet.) lol

    Yessir! I already ordered them off of IMA-USA... I also got an action cover. Hopefully they make good stuff.

    Sorry about the luft helmet.

    lol!

    Thanks for the kind words, everyone!

    The picture of the receiver makes me a little nervous... it doesn't look that great. I'm hoping it's just the poor quality of the cell phone picture and the flash picking up a slathering of cosmoline.
