My New K98
A very good friend of mine gave me this K98 last week. It is a byf 43. When he gave it to me it had a scope mounted in the rear site base.

Really nice example you have there. Nice that they did not drill and tap for the scope.

My buddy just gave me the original matching site bar and spring today. I will try to get them mounted and add a pic or 2.

I just love shooting.
