    I really enjoyed the video. However, there is one important detail that you (and surprisingly many other collectors) got wrong: The 98 action does not vent into the magazine.
    Yes, the holes are on the bottom of the bolt but when it is locked they turn 90° clockwise which lines them up perfectly along the left receiver wall. The gases are vented through the holes, then between the bolt body and left receiver wall and out the thumb-cutout on the left. They are blocked from going rearward by the bolt shrowd shield. Venting hot gases into a fixed box magazine would be a terrifying idea because it would blow out the magazine's side walls which would themselves catastrophically burst the wood around the magazine into pieces of shrapnel.

    Thanks for your overview of Mauser rifles. I have an exception regarding the use of 1893 bolt design with the flat base. The Spanish 1916 rifle used the same bolt as the 1893. They are interchangeable. I have the Persian M98/28 rifle which was manfactured by BRNO. It's a great shooter. As someone else mentioned, the K98 vents from the left side of the large ring.

    Great vid! I have several mausers. I grew up shooting groundhogs with dads, the sweet 8mm K-98 he bought when he was 16 in the 60's for $40! It was an unissued numbers matching bring back "GLOVER!" With the stamped large trigger gaurd! Made in 1944 in BRNO. He shot rats with it! I didn't own a bb gun for 5 yrs after I was picking off ground hogs at 250 yrds with that K-98! I was 7 yrs old! It still looks just as nice as when he got it, because I was taught that if I ever fell to place my body between that K98 and the ground or get an ass whoopin'! I could DA it sitting on my right hand blindfolded at 10! I told my wife if this house catches fire leave everything, grab that K98 and run! Watching you it suddenly hit me that some of the rifles we own were the last vision of earthly life, the last warmth felt by fallen hands as desperate prayers for home and family misty vision escaped dying lips. Humbling!

      In 1972, there was a sale in DC, Argentine 09 and Kar 98, The Argentine was literally mint and the kar 98 looked well worn. I took 2 of the 09's, had a competent gunsmith rebarrel one in 243 and the other in 308 in 20", butterknife bolt handle and Austrian style Fajen stock, tack driver hits. My mistake, I should have bought 3 rifles and kept the third one intact just like mint issue. Argentina did not have any wars until the80's.

    • @piosian4196
      @piosian4196 2 роки тому +2

      The Filipino Mausers were mostly Spanish Mausers (DWM, Berlin) supplied to the Spanish forces in 1891. On encounters with the Katipuneros, some Spanish soldiers lose their guns and easily changed hands with the revolutionaries. Some later models like the Chilean Mausers 1893 also were used . They were 7 X 57 mm. Kar 98 were used by the Nazi's in WW II. It's not possible to arm any army in 1898 with a firearm made in 1898. Paul Mauser invented the Rifle in 1876, and produced thousands every year the longest and the most numerous were the K98 in 7.92 X 57mm (8mm) in both WW I and WW II. Yes the Filipino unit of snipers were armed with Mausers but the 1891 and a few 1893 models.

      After WW1 Mauser couldn't enforce their patents as they could before the war such as with the Springfield 1903. Mauser would have sued Britian as well for the P13 as well but the war stopped that.
      I think FN's thought process was that by shortening the action length you reduce materials needed for manufacturing and the weight of the rifle. But as FN found out, interchangeability with the German 98 was important to most countries.
