Sounds like Grandpa would know. I will follow your advice and adapt the script a bit.
Foxy is gonna need that accuracy, possibly

My Grampa has always preached that it was worth to pay for the reproduced 7,92mm bullets instead of converting the calibre, as the accuracy was said to suffer no matter what. The 98k was his service rifle issued in 1945 when he was 14... he hid it away before surrendering. He was a hunter, so later he owned it legally. I guess there were not much questions asked about the origins of WW2 weapons in the early years..

Just call it an 8mm Mauser, that's how it's designated by SAAMI and how basically everybody knows it. The caliber, that is. The rifle is still called a Mauser 98k or Karabiner 98k if you want to be all proper and German.

I have a pristine matching serial Wehrmacht-marked one in my collection (at least until my facist government decides to ban it like fucking everything else) and between it, my M1 Garand, and my Lee Enfield it's easily the smoothest shooting and most accurate of the WW2 battle-rifles (although the Garand is probably the most fun, if you don't count loading the clips...PING!). Mosins are shit and I never managed to find a Type 99, so I don't own either of those.

Oh, and by the way EchoFoxtrot, I like that you actually matched the rifle's model in-game to its actual name in real life. That's some excellent attention to detail.

It was hard to find and a bitch to pose manually, Thanks

I won't ask you to have the girls field strip them, then.
(That's what the little metal circle in the butt is for.)

Sadly, the rifle asset has no movement, you'll have to imagine it

There's a reason Mosins used to be called "garbage rods" and were sold out of barrels back in the day before the surplus market went crazy.

Clearly i am joking with ya

NO! Really?

But i am left-handed, which makes me sensitive to thinge of that natire - and i read online that the Brits have a weapon [can't recall the designation} i wouldn't be able to use safely and effectively - it has a left-hand charging handle, and a bullpup action. Fire that left-handed and it's gonna break your nose {or do other damage}.

We sinister people tend to run a little touchy about left-handed jokes...

Never have i ever heard someone call it 8mm Mauser in Germany. Also 98k's totally sufficient over here (in Germany )

Yeah, but that's because Germans have that whole "You must be exact!" thing going on.

The cartridge is known as an 8mm Mauser basically everywhere else that uses SAAMI standards. I suppose it's possible or maybe even probable that the European nations would specificy 7.92x57mm.

As for calling it a 98k, I can see that being sufficient. Most folks over here just call it a Mauser and don't even bother with the actual model number, they're basically ignorant about the fact that it's the company name and that they made a LOT of other firearms.

I think its pretty common.never heard someone speakin for example of a Colt M16 instead of simply M16, or AK47 instead of Izhmash Awtomat Kalaschnikova...

Even more though because this rifle was made by literally all German armorers at the peak of WW2.

 

[DaFinker]

Well, they made my dad's off-duty 70s era HSc, and my 1939 Army Luger (numbers matching, except for magazines, as well as a 1939 dated Army holster ). And, yeah, "purists" would say it isn't an "original" since it was post 1918.
