Description: WORLD WAR II Era German Mauser “byf”/42” Code K98 .30-06 Sporting Rifle C&R Upgraded German THIRD REICH Infantry Rifle w/SCOPE Here we present a C&R German Mauser Oberndorf Third Reich “byf” Code “42” Model K98 Sporting Rifle manufactured circa 1942. This is an example of a mid-World War II K98 rifle that was manufactured at the Mauser factory in Oberndorf and upgraded to a sporting configuration. Oberndorf has a long history of producing military small arms. Founded in 1811 by King Frederich the First of Wuerttemberg as an arsenal to produce muskets for his army, the facility was typical of many factories that sprang up during the Industrial Revolution. Mauser acquired the plant in 1871 and was the First Mauser Plant acquired which was located in Oberndorf, Germany. In 1898 the German Army purchased a Mauser design, the Model 98, which incorporated improvements introduced in earlier models. This weapon’s line was originally chambered for the Patrone 88 and officially entered German service as the Gew. 98 on April 5, 1898. This remains by far the most successful of the Mauser designs, helped by the onset of two world wars that demanded vast numbers of rifles. At the start of World War II, the Führer demanded that the factory produce 70,000 Mauser rifles a month, and it delivered them with the help of 5,000 forced laborers from across Europe.
