SynopsisHere is the complete story of a most significant era in modern small arms development. Beginning with WWI, Peter Senich details the adaptation of the bolt-action Mauser 98 for long-range sniping and covers the special measures needed to ensure the rifle's accuracy. Moving on to WWII, Senich discusses the venerable Mauser Karabiner 98k and the various novel mounting systems used to adapt it to optical sight. More than 600 exceptional photographs detail every facet of these significant weapons and the men who used them.
Received the book in a well packaged box. Came in mint condition. Book has great info which helps me with identifying compelling models of German sniper rifles which aids me in selecting items to purchase for my builds. Very happy with my purchase.
A complete analysis of old-school German Sniper-craft!
This text was excellently researched and written and was perfectly illustrated with clear easy to discern period and modern photographs. If this subject is of interest, this book is a 5-Star pick.
