The M1 Jammed more than the k98 , only difference, else they are pritty much the same, just that all well almost all bolt action rifles are re-builds of the German Mauser.
um, you do know that the M1 garand is a semi-auto while the mauser is a bolt action rifle?
and also it is extremely difficult to jam a bolt action rifle, because bolt action rifles don't jam. where as teh only moving part is the firing pin, everything else is manuel.
Kar98k and M1 rifle the same? How? 8x57 Bolt action vs 7.62x63 semi auto. The M1 is a very rugged, reliable, accurate, safe, and soldier-friendly design. With the gas operation placed along the barrel right to the end, no parts move until the bullet has left the rifle. Both the M1 rifle and Kar98k can be disassembled without tools, both are very accurate and dependable designs, but they're entirely different firearms. I might add that bolt actions sometimes do jam.
Yeah I have done all that before. I am using some surplus ammo from the shooting range I go to. The recoil is pretty tough so maybe the rounds are hot.
possibly some cosmoline heating up whens the last time you gave it a serious cleaning? also were you using laquer cased rounds? at times these can be problematic.
You are correct the stipper I was using was not the correct stripper for the k-98 and did fit properly in the reciever so I had to pull them off. A correct 98-k stripper will have 3 dimples on each side for those who may read this.
agree with u there mine is Russian captured too and though when i restore it it may not be 100 percent accurate (neither is my enfield but hell if u saw it u wouldn't care cuz it always draws interest at the range) sometimes looks mean more
hows the Nazi stamps on yours? mine are actuality still quite clear, u can see the swastikas
I haven't found anyone on YouTube yet that realizes you don't need to remove the stripper clip by hand. It pops clear when you push the bolt forward. Try it some time.
theres actually 3 different "cousin" versions of that rifle. The K-98, M-48, and M-96. The laster of which has a slightly wider stripper clip than the two first guns which share identical versions. The difference being the K-98 is produced in Germany by Germans/forced labor, the M-48 was produced mainly in Czechoslovakia after the Germans were forced out by Soviet Armies.

why did you pull the rounds off the stripper clip to load?
disturbedone5009 2 years ago 2
my bad i missed the earlier comments.
i have a 1938 k98k and i have a problem with the bolt getting sticky after 60 shots or so. do you have any ideas on how i can fix that?
disturbedone5009 2 years ago
clean the chamber really well and take the bolt apart and clean it very well and what kind of ammo were you using?
azzzz09886543 2 years ago
Yeah I have done all that before. I am using some surplus ammo from the shooting range I go to. The recoil is pretty tough so maybe the rounds are hot.
disturbedone5009 2 years ago
well if the rounds are to hot then your going to want to look at the primer to see if they bulge after firing and what origin is the surplus?
azzzz09886543 2 years ago
I have no idea what the origin is. Its brass cased so I don't know. I haven't put much through it so maybe it needs to be loosened up again.

murphdogdog18 2 years ago
I cleaned it really well after I picked it up and right after the first trip to the range. It did seem to loosen up the 2nd time I shot it.
They were brass cased so it is not the lacquer.

haha thats what I was thinking.

If I am looking correctly, why is the bolt white? .....Mitchell's Mauser I am guessing?

@zachau Ugh.. PLEASE reblue the bolt. It's the correct finish, AND it will protect it better from rust. RC k98's are GREAT fun. I have a few also!

Nice. I'm curious why you took the rounds off the stripper clip before loading them into the gun.
LupisLupine 4 years ago
Good question the stripper I had the 8mm on was too large for the reciever. I think it was designed for the M96.
