What is the difference between a German Mauser K98 and a Yugo Mauser?
There are few German Mausers.. The main one is the K98 . This was the main issue weapon during WWII. During WWII one of the places K98s were built was in Yugoslavia. The folks in Yugoslavia learned how to make them. After the war they took and redesigned the K98s and designed and made their own models.... They used them in their own army after the war and sold them all over the world. The M48 is my favorite yugo Mauser .
What were the differences between the German guns and the American guns?
Depends on the time period and the type of gun. During WWI, the main German infantry rifle was the 1898 Mauser. The main American rifle was the 1903 Springfield. Their designs are so close that US had to pay royalties to Mauser. US Army also made use of shotguns for trench warfare, while no other country did so. In WWII the standard German rifle was the Karabiner 98, which is still the same Mauser design. US was armed with the M1 Garand, which had higher ammunition capacity and a faster rate of fire that made it superior. WWII also saw the use of many other types of weapons, but in more limited numbers. Some of them had no direct counterparts on the other side of the conflict, such as the M1 Carbine. In pistols, German gun design has always tended to be more mechanically complex, where American gun design is more on the functional side.

What weapon might have had the widest use during World War I?
The German Gewehr 98 rifle and its derivatives. The reason behind this was because of the Mauser bolt-action design that was used in this rifle was so reliable and robust that it was copied by numerous other nations. The American Springfield 1903, for example, was almost a direct copy of the Gewehr 98. Springfield was actually sued by Mauser at one point because of the similaries.
