The Swedish Mauser is renown as a very reliable and unerring weapon with a high degree of own accuracy. As a repeater it comes with a 5-round-stock-integrated-magazine, the sight is adjustable up to 2 km. Marksmen especially appreciate the long barrel and the comparative comfortable caliber."

This repeater has also got a 5-round-stock-integrated-magazine, the sight is adjustable up to 2 km. In WW2 the K98 has been built, nearly worldwide, in unknown factories and has been used in many armies. Because of cheap ammo and the huge amount of this rifle (approx. 100 mio. pieces of Mod. 98 worldwide) very widespread. The 98er shows god precision in different calibers, but with slightly unpleasant strong rebound. The construction design of the System 98 is very simple, but good. It is still used with modern hunting-rifles!"
