    Here are a few of my DOU 43 K98. It has all matching numbers and all the Waffenamt stamps are intact. It was made in '43 and it's in very good shape. It also has a sight hood which I don't see very often.

    even the sling looks original! Have you tried to look up its history?

    No I haven't yet. I just got it a month ago. Is there a website that I can use?

    Its nice to see them in original condition instead of customized or "bubba'd" up. Very nice, congrats.

    It's great to see them in such excellent condition with the original markings.

    Thanks for the input fellas.

    Jerome,
    I took it to the range last week and it shot really well. I only ran 30 rounds through it and they all hit the paper plate target I used for a target. I was using the 100 yd. range. Next time, I'll use the 22 yd. range. It has a smooth action when cycling the bolt as well.

    Martin,
    Thanks for the link!
