German Mauser question
I just bought a couple of Mauser 98 geha shotgun conversions the other day. One a 12ga and the other a 16. It is quite rare to find one with no stock damage for 80 years old, especialy crack free. One was cherry, the other needs to be restocked. I however plan to shoot them a bit and am going to restock both of them. I have a couple of perfect turk 98 stocks around, but with out the metal hardware. I have or can get all but a few things for them . I have checked about everywhere I can think of From Sarco to Numrich and about 15 other places. I need the bolt disassembly disks for the back of the stock as well as the knowledge on how to put them in. Can anyone tell me where I can get about 4 of the disks for a 98 mauser? If push comes to shove I can have my machinist friend make me a few but would rather buy some and save time.

I guess you need the stock (bolt disassembly) discs for Turkish Mauser stocks? Anyway, that's the way I read it. O.K.--the way the Turks did it on the stocks I've got in my shop were to make the discs out of steel and insert them into the holes on the sides of the stock, then put a brass tube through the holes and peen the ends of the tube over, kind of like a big rivet. When you look at them you will notice that they are two-tone, the silver colored disc around a brass colored center. I have removed several discs by filing off the brass end and then punching the tube out of the stock. I might have one in my parts drawer that you can have for the postage---don't know what else I would ever use it for. You'll have to supply a new piece of tube, unless your stock is thinner. You could probably come pretty close with a piece of copper plumbing pipe. If not, it shouldn't be difficult to turn out the exact thing on a lathe. 0 -
