25
Details of the clasp of the Czech K98k sling.
| 
26
Note the riveted sling loop. German ww2 slings loops, on the other hand, were sewn.
| 
27
stamped and welded front band. Note that it started life as a German kriegsmodel band, but the screw hole has been fileld with weld and ground down flush prior to blueing. The BRNO factory manufactured these for Nazi K98k rifles during WW2, so it stands to reason that a suply was in store at the BRNO factory.
| 
28
Rear band, stamped and welded construction. Note that it was a kriegsmodel part, but the screw hole has been welded up and dressed prior to blueing.
|
29
Note the nose cap and bayonet lug, re-instituted as a standard rifle feature at the BRNO factory post-war after the Germans had cancelled the feature during kriegsmodel production.
| 
30
Front sight assembly. The original sight hood is missing, but it of the standard K98k type.
| 
31
Note the welded seam along the bottom of the front barrel band.
| 
32
"87" is marked into the buttstock. It's unknown what it signifies, probably it's a rack or inventory number.
|
33
Details of the bolt body. Note that despite the fact the guide rib channel was machined into all Czech K98k receivers, probably to allow for parts interchangeability with other K98k's, the post-war bolt bodies did NOT incorporate the bolt guide rib. They also maintained the Nazi era kriegsmodel shortcuts of drilling round holes for gas relief.
| 
34
Note the stamped and welded magazine follower.
| 
35
Note the round gas escape holes, continued from a German wartime shortcut.
| 
36
Note the czech rampant lion proof on the bolt handle ball. This is the clear identifier for post-war czech bolt bodies.
|
37
The issue K98k cleaning kit. Pullthrough, cleaning brush, oiler, bore brush and chamber brush.
