Cell phone camera? Very strong light will help the camera take better pics, sunlight is best.
Re: 1939 660 k98 more information please?
Yeah don't have a camera and my room is dark and I would go outside and take pictures but I live on a golf course and don't care to much for random people to know there's firearms in my house.

Golf course, cool, I always thought such a place would be a cool place to bring in a backhoe dig some trenches and reenact the Great War The barrel landscape, long range visibility. Will the owners be OK with that?

Maybe one of my neighbors would hes a little wacky though so I wouldn't want to test him haha.

Re: 1939 660 k98 more information please?
If nothing else there is that wide open range that would be perfect for target shooting, shooting golf balls could be fun, more fun than swinging a stick at them anyway. I shot one off a target stand once, don't know what happened to it, the ball with a hole in it that I was expecting turned into little bits, the parts I found anyway .
Re: 1939 660 k98 more information please?
the biggest thing ive shot a golf ball with has been a 22lr and it took off like a rocket.

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

My problem these days would be hitting a target that small, it was less of a problem 20 years ago...VKT1941 wrote:the biggest thing ive shot a golf ball with has been a 22lr and it took off like a rocket.

The sights on Mausers aren't the easiest to look down anyways.

I know how you feel.
Re: 1939 660 k98 more information please?
My sentiments regarding a golf course are much the same as yours JYD. A great place to shoot clay pigeons, nice clear areas for various rifle, shotgun, and pistol ranges. When people ask me if I golf, I usually tell them no, that I've never been that hard up for something to do.
My old Dad used to call it the hoof and mouth disease - walk all day and talk all night.

GOOD RIDDANCE LGR!! If there isn't a gun range in heaven, then I'm going to hell.

Well it's a golf course in the city limits so any shooting I do can result in a fine or more. I don't want to give my gun/ammo stash away when I can but more stuff(:

The 660 manufacturing code is the Steyr plant in Austria and that's about all I know of the rifle and I'd like to know more of it. Thank you for anyone who helps me with this. I will post pictures if it becomes necessary.
