'WRF: yeah, it was the 6" /38. as I recall it was $430 or something like that, did not look to find the year made but it felt good in the hand, kinda odd, what with all the square autos and bulkly stainless steel you see nowdays..........

I know it isn't a military crest, but I have seen a couple drillings and a couple sporting mausers with this maker's mark. I did finally get confirmation of the maker as Oswald G. Scherell, a Prussian gunmaker located in Berlin by his grand daughter Andrea Berger-Scherell. She is still running his business making the stock oil schaftol, but no longer making guns. http://www.bitsofpieces.com/schaftol.html

It is a small ring using a standard 98 bolt. The front ring measures 1.283.

Here are the other markings which do not look like standard Imperial German proofs. Sorry about the size, I can't make it smaller and still be able to see them.

I will post a picture of the crest on my custom, if I ever pull the scope base off of it. I was told here about a year ago, that it is a Portugese short rifle model 1939, I think...

WW I German Gewehr 98. Vet bringback, not messed with. Receiver in the white, just as it left the factory.

WW II German Kar 98k Letter Code. This one is a ZF-41 Sniper, one of only 5,922 made in 1941. You can just see the clearance cut in the stock for the scope mount at the lower left.
