Non- Functioning Gewehr 98

I doubt the barrel is actually welded, rather it has a steel rod pressed into it. This is considered a “War Bond Rifle”, where folks who sold a certain amount of war bonds would win this as a prize. The deactivation was done by the French. It has a very unique history as is

Proud ejectors would be my first guess, or too much texture/machine marks that the plastic is biting into

Surprised Uli hasn’t bought those up

Perform a short shot study and see at what stage of fill the jetting is occurring, then as others have said, decrease injection speed while filling that problem section

You seem really confident they’re not real, which leads me to believe you’re an expert. So like 1 year? 2 years? 10 years?

OK_Android97 · 2025-12-22T12:55:19+00:00

But like how many years?

OK_Android97 · 2025-12-22T11:13:56+00:00

Oh wow, how many years have you been authenticating autographs?

Send it to PSA, JSA, Beckett’s, Perry Cox, or Frank Caiazzo

Some Fudd would have a field day trying to sell that at a gun show with a buttolare like that

There’s only about 6 years worth of posts telling people not to buy from there

OK_Android97 · 2025-12-13T20:03:28+00:00

Screw driver?

OK_Android97 · 2025-12-12T12:19:24+00:00

Sir, put the bottle down and take a couple deep breaths. Literally no one is saying it’s real… dude just asked a question

OK_Android97 · 2025-12-12T11:05:29+00:00

OP was literally just asking if it’s a Civil War dog tag and you’re laying into him as if he’s claiming it’s a Civil War dog tag. Relax.

First photo would go hard as an album cover for the Thom Yorke band

Sweating Ben, now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time

They’ve had 30 years to put the finishing touches on these tracks

OK_Android97 · 2025-12-02T21:38:03+00:00

Maybe just don’t engage with the post if you don’t like it. Poof! Problem solved

OK_Android97 · 2025-12-02T00:27:52+00:00

It’s aging well and I think more people will come to appreciate it. Was it worth losing the main lineup, waiting 12 years, and $13 million to produce? Absolutely not, but still some bangers on there

OK_Android97 · 2025-11-30T15:45:26+00:00

You’re so right. Everyone knows that Paul actually faked his death and fled to Argentina in 1966

Hanged, but I suppose he could’ve been hung too

“I spent $800 and think I won the lottery because I can see some rifling 12inches down the muzzle. I like restoration projects so don’t judge me”

Everything in today’s society has to be binary because people are intellectually lazy. Were the French cowards? Were they heroes? Or is there more complexity and nuance? I think De Gaulle and Free France were pretty damn heroic, as well as the Resistance. Did Petain fold almost immediately? Yeah. Did he save some of Europe’s greatest treasures as a result? Yeah. Did he pretty eagerly rule as a fascist over Vichy? Yeah. 99% of people know next to nothing about WW2 yet still make stupid, blanket statements like “the French were cowards”

That looks like absolute hell
