The Mauser M 98 are a series of currently (2009) produced hunting bolt action rifles. Though the production of the controlled-feed Mauser M 98 bolt action system for the German military ceased at the end of World War II in 1945, the production of new Mauser M 98 and M 98 Magnum rifles for civil users has been resumed in 1999 in Isny im Allgäu, Germany by ''Mauser Jagdwaffen GmbH''〔(Mauser Jagdwaffen GmbH )〕 (Mauser Huntingweapons Ltd.), according to original drawings of 1936 and the respective Mauser patents. ''Mauser Jagdwaffen GmbH'' is a subsidiary of SIG Sauer. The Mauser M 98 series are practically a contemporary civilian version adapted for hunting and other sporting purposes of the Karabiner 98k service rifle, which was one of the final developments in the long line of Mauser military rifles. Vaguely similar to the latter rifle in appearance, the M 98 is offered in many different hunting chamberings, not like the original service rifle. ==Design details== As a modern civilian offspring of the Karabiner 98k service rifle the Mauser M 98 series offers several features and factory options, that are also typical for sporterised Mauser Karabiner 98k ex-service rifles, ranging from various technical departures from the basic Mauser service rifle it was based on to luxury wood grades, (gold) inlays, engravings and surface treatments like plasma-based nitriding to protect metal parts against corrosion in aggressive environmental conditions or color case hardening.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mauser M98 Magnum )〕 Some of the available options were originally developed and introduced by John Rigby & Co. on Rigby Mauser hunting rifles. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mauser M 98」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
