    German K98k with gewehrgranatgerät (grenade launcher)

    I've had this one awhile but as they seem to be a lot less common now I thought I'd post some pics of this old war horse. Sadly no vet history on this one. It's a German coded (dot 1944) Czech production (WAFFENWERKE BRUENN A.G.) rifle with a correct E/63 proofed but mismatched numbered bolt assembly. Everything else matches on the rifle and the sling is also original with German waffenamts. Bore is shiny. The H on the stock indicates this particular rifle saw service with the Wehrmacht (Heer).The original German Gewehrgranatgerät unit and original grenade box were with it when I acquired it. The rope handle on the box was replaced. Obviously the anti personnel and anti-tank grenades are dewat. This clamp on accessory turned any standard rifle into a grenadier model. The elaborate clamp-on rear sight with bubble level (this one still works!) was usually not used. The wrench is used to disassemble the launcher for cleaning. The grenades were launched with a special cartridge that was packaged with the grenades.
