Description
Mauser Rifles, Vol. 2: 1918-1945 G. 98, K. 98b, Standard-Modell, K. 98k, Sniper, Markings, Ammunition, Accessories This book explores the design, manufacturing, and combat use of various Mauser rifle models from 1918 to the end of World War II. The evolution of the Mauser rifle is closely tied to the development of the German regulation rifle, which was influenced by the earlier Gewehr 98 model. The book delves into the changes made to the rifle's manufacture during this period, including the adoption of the improved K98k model in 1934. The book features a range of detailed images, including close-up views of markings, serial numbers, and other distinctive features. It also includes a visual breakdown of the rifle's accessories, such as ammunition, bayonets, and scopes. Additionally, the book includes rare and rarely seen combat-related uniform and equipment items. Written by Luc Guillou, a writer and editor with extensive knowledge of historical and modern weaponry, this full-color illustrated book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of firearms.
