It was one of the final developments in the long line of Mauser military rifles. </p> <p>The Karabiner 98k is a controlled-feed bolt-action rifle based on the Mauser M 98 system. Its internal magazine can be loaded with 5 cartridges from a stripper clip or one-by-one.</p> <p><center><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9f/K98kclip.jpg" /></center> <center><em>Karabiner 98k stripper clip with five 7.92×57mm Mauser cartridges</em> (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karabiner_98k#/media/File:K98kclip.jpg">image source</a>)</center></p> <p>The rifle had an effective firing range of 500 meters (550 yards) with iron sights or 1,000 meters (1,090 yards) with telescopic sight.</p> <p>Although supplemented by semi- and fully automatic rifles during World War II, it remained the primary German service rifle until the end of the Second World War in 1945. Because of its good accuracy, they were also modified for use as sniper rifles.</p> <p>Millions of these rifles were captured by Soviet forces at the end of World War II and were widely distributed as military aid to their Communist allies. This weapon therefore continues to appear in conflicts across the world as they are taken out of storage during times of violent clashes.</p> <p>This rifle is still sought after and valued highly by gun collectors.</p> <p>https://youtu.be/1wNs5Ej0Dqg <center><em>Youtube vid by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIdHmd7vegVx9Z6s99BhtTA">VŠĮ Grenadierius</a></em></center></p> <h2><br><br><br></h2> <hr /> <p><strong>Sources:</strong> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karabiner_98k">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karabiner_98k</a><br> <a href="http://www.5sswiking.com/k98.html">http://www.5sswiking.com/k98.html</a></p> <hr /> <p><strong>"I came, I saw...

@darthnava, I really like this article. Weapons and warfare are two of main topics that I wish to discuss about! Thanks for your article I have learnt more about this Rifle as well. If I am not mistaken this gun was a beast in the WWII warfare. And one of the top accurate gun as well. Thank you very much for sharing this great article with us! Cheers and looking for your next article!
