This is a very fine example of a 1945 production Mauser K98k rifle with a ZF41/1 scope mounted on the integral rail on the left of the rear sight base. Providing 1.5 power magnification, the forward location of the scope allows the shooter a greater field of view. "Mod.98" above the Mauser manufacturer code and date "byf 45" marked on top of the receiver ring, with "eagle/135" proofs. Hooded blade iron front sight and tangent rear sights. Mounted with a laminated pistol grip stock, stamped steel trigger guard housing, floorplate, barrel bands, and cupped steel buttplate. The floor plate is "byf" Mauser manufacturer marked. Matching visible serial numbers on the barrel, bolt and its components, with no visible numbers on the underside of the handguard or inside of the stock channel. The included ZF41/1 scope is marked on the tube with a blue filled triangle above "cxn/ZF41/1" in two lines, numbered "156181" on the rear of the tube, and is fitted on a quick-release mount marked on the left with "duv" Berlin-Lubecker manufacturer code above an "eagle/214" proof, with "K98k-Zf.41" marked on the rear surface of the mount. Includes a period brown leather sling.

Very fine, retains 90% arsenal refurbished blue and phosphate finishes with a few small patches of minor pitting visible underneath the finish. The arsenal refurbished stock is fine with a few light handling marks, and defined edges. Mechanically excellent. The scope and mount are very fine, with slightly hazy optics.
