For your consideration is a Polish Radom Vz. 98 Mauser bolt action 7.92mm rifle. The Radom Model 98 was a Polish derivative of the German Gewehr 98 bolt-action rifle. After gaining independence, the Polish Army was armed mainly with a mixture of Russian, Austrian and German rifles. French rifles also were brought to Poland by returning Blue Army soldiers. As a result, at the end of the Polish-Soviet War in 1921, the Polish army was armed with approximately 24 types of guns and 22 types of rifles, all firing different ammunition. Since such a combination of designs adversely affected training and logistics, work on one standard rifle was carried out starting in 1919. This bolt action rifle utilizes a 23 ½” round barrel chambered in 7.92mm Mauser. The barrel shows a nice patina’d blue finish. The top and right side of the barrel are stamped with hallmarks. The top of the receiver is stamped “F.B. Radom 1937”. The rifle is fit with an upgraded Redfield rear sight with adjustable windage and elevation. The walnut stock shows excellent condition. Serial Number: 25171. This firearm qualifies as a Curio & Relic, and requires FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.
