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.
