    Need info/pictures on K98 markings

    Theres a gun shop in town that has a K98 on the shelf for $300. I'd like to be reasonably sure its a genuine K98. On the left side of the reciever next to the bolt is written Prezusse? or something beginning with the letter "P". I wish I had a picture. If there was a page on the net I could probably look it up. Any good pages to look this up? Thanks

    Hey guys, got a 98k Preduzece 44 at a PA auction for $230. No import marks, beautiful patina and nice lam stock Mod 98 in small letters on action and crest on receiver ring. Has site hood, rod and very nice 98k sling. Bore is MINT, this looks like a German 98k that was scrubbed and marked...

      As timdps pointed out, if it is a K98k it has been rebuilt by the Yugoslavians

      Revolvers are not pistols

      pistol nouna handgun whose chamber is integral with the barrel
      Calling a revolver a "pistol" is like calling a magazine a "clip", calling a shotgun a rifle, or a calling a man a woman.

        No matter what, every time I look at that word I see 'prejudice'. Is that crazy or what?

        Other Yugo models also have that word so you need to know the difference between the K98k and m/24, 24/47, 24/47/52, m/48.

        I own one of the Yugo'fied & de'nazi'fied K98k with the 'prejudice' marking. The original German mfg code and year made were removed and replaced with the Yugo commie crest. As such, to my way of thinking, it is no longer a viable collectible. But it is a fine rifle otherwise.

        My hand drill and some crazy glue made it mo'better...
