These Mauser rifles were originally issued to front-line military units during active service. Following their primary deployment, many were transferred to police forces and reserve military units for continued use in auxiliary roles. In these secondary capacities, the rifles were often modified by their individual users—resulting in a wide variety of configurations. No two examples are exactly the same, reflecting both the practical needs and personal preferences of their handlers. Common differences include bolt style, removal of sight hoods, missing or replaced buttplates, and significant variation in stock type and wood grain. These rifles reflect a practical, user-driven approach to maintenance and customization, with each example telling its own story of extended service and adaptation.
The Zastava Model 98 is a refurbished bolt-action rifle chambered in 7.92x57mm (8mm Mauser), a cartridge temporarily adopted in the years following World War II by the Yugoslav People's Army. This design is essentially a refurbished Mauser Kar98k rifle leftover by Germans or captured by partisans during the war. The only difference between a a German Kar98k and a Zastava M98/48 consists of the markings and a front barrel band. They are virtually identical to each other since they are the same rifles at their core.
