a K98 German rifle dated 1938 was obviously used in WW2 by the Germans. check end of barrel, underneath, to see if there is any 'import' mark. check to see if marks and numbers have been removed. check to see if all numbers match. check to see condition of bore.
Many, many K98 have been imported into the states and do not sell for much more then$200. Such imports are WW2 captured weapons by the Russians, and they have import marks. Any K98 NOT import marked has more value...................
Depends on condition, but anywhere between $150-$750.
A Mauser 98 rifle is worth between $300 and $1,000 depending on its condition and model. Those which were actually used in combat will demand a higher price.
value has a lot to do with condition, maker, bore and markings. best to go to a gun site like:
gunsamerica.com and look up selling price and condition of similar rifle
value depends on overall condition, date and maker. Some are worth more and some are not. The Russian imports are lower in value.......................
They vary. It can be anywhere from $300-2500
depends on condition
Mauser k98 value $475
depends on the maker, overall condition and type. send pictures..............
value depends on condition. also, many,many German K98's were imported to the United States from Russia. The are referred to as: RC (Russian capture) those taken from German forces after WW2. The RC are marked with an import mark and sell from$200 to $350...............A K98 not import can be worth 2 to 3 times more
value would depend on overall condition of the rifle.........if condition is reasonably good I would estimate $3,000 to $4,000. But you have to find someone with money.......
Markings on the rifle will indicate exactly when and where it was made. So- what markings are on yours?
It means your rifle was made in 1938 at the Mauser AG plant in Obendorf. 42 was the code for Mauser- many different firms built the K98.
Yes. You will lose 50-60 percent of the collector value if you do these things.

No. The hooded front sight post was adopted in 1939.
look on top by the date. you will see letters. those letters tell you who made the rifle. example 'byf' was made by the mauser factory.........................
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 .
Anywhere from $50 to $1000. Value depends on condition, markings, and originality. The generic German military is probably around $350-$400 in very good condition. Russian captures and Yugos are less. You will really need a hands on appraisal.
