Berlin Police marked Kar98A
Berlin Police marked Kar98A
Picked this one up a couple months back. It is a mostly matching 1918 dated Kar98A carbine. The bolt has been blued and there is a 1920 date on reicever both of which indicate Weimar ownership/rework. The top of the buttplate is marked "SB" which is a Berlin police department marking.

Looks like a very nice old Mauser. I'd like to pick up an older one to go with my 98K.

“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
C. S. Lewis

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

A German AZ is something that has been on my short list for quite a while. Very nice, especially this duel date example.
