This model is a very close approximation of my real Kar98k. All dimensions were measured by hand. Adjustments were made for fitment in favor of making the model visually correct.
A brief history on this particular layout of the Kar98k: My example is dated 1942, which is early-mid war. By then, Kar98k's were being manufactured with front sight hoods. Some rifles would still have the H-shaped barrel bands, but were transitioning to the new "solid" barrel bands. I might post a solid barrel band just so people can swap it out if they please. The stocks on pre-war/early-war rifles were solid walnut, while this example has made the transition to plywood. This would be the standard throughout the rest of production. Everything on my '42 rifle except the butt plate is milled, but during this time in the war, parts like the trigger guard, sling barrel band, and firing pin release buttons (discs in the stock) were transitioning into stamped parts. Flat butt plates only appeared on pre-war/early-war rifles.
