  • @ProudCanadian2117 Yea it is irritating. We were into world war 2 guns far before the call of duty series was released.

    I learned none of my gun knowledge from a video game. That's nonsense.

  • It's a nice gun

  • if the kar98k was a sniper rifle, then all sodiers in the wehrmacht were snipers. can everyone stop calling bolt action rifles sniper rifles? they wernt all sniper rifles, they can be converted to, but they were primary battle rifles when they were issued.

  • The KAR98K isn't a Sniper Rifle it's a Battle Rifle.

  • @Redx130000 too bad the kar98"K" was a sniper

  • @super64mandown It's a battle rifle. But it was used as a sniper rifles in times. Like Hitler's assassination attempt.

  • @Redx130000 the k version is a sniper rifle get your facts right. theres diff versions

  • @super64mandown The Karabiner 98 Kurz It's often abbreviated Kar98k, K98, or K98k there's no "sniper version" it played a sniper role in WW2.

  • Do you have to use shells with this?

  • Dude buy The Tanaka variant

  • Oh man oh man will you sell that ?

  • WHATS THE FPS? WHERE DID U GET IT?? SOOO MANY QUESTIONS

  • longer !!!

  • guys i am going to be gettin a sniper rifle so should i get a kar98k or classic army m14 but i really like the k98k send me a message

  • i got a question...idk if its just my kar or if its a all out problem for everybody.....sometimes when i shoot the shell will get stuck and i will have to get pliers to get it out...also LOTS of times the pellete wont even shoot out of the shell...ill have to get a handger and force it out of the shell.....so i need HEEELLPP ... it just pisses me off because i paid 300 dollars for it and it doesnt work right

  • it Was the Naiz's Main ifintery Rifle but when you put a scope on it then its a sniper rifle

  • I have a question!

    Er... How does the shell works? The bullet! Is filled with one ball? Is it reusable

    when the you shot one? PLEASE ANSWER!

  • its not a sniper its a german infantry rifle with iron sites not a scopre they did use a scope to hunt with you should really learn what your talking about although some may have had scopes you obviously dont

  • can any1 plz tell me if a scope can be mounted on this??!?!?!

  • to turn it into a M1903 Springfield u would have to cut off the front sight and try to tap the reciever. atleast thats what i would do

  • Where did you get the M14

  • it is not a sniper rifle its a boltaction rifle used first by wehrmacht.

  • my cousin has a toy version of it XD

  • le Kar 98 n'était pas spécialement un fusil pour les sniper, c'était le fusil de dotation basique de la Wehrmacht depuis la 1ere guerre, cette version le 98K est la version carabine plus courte.

  • How would you rate the Kark 98 as an airsoft gun from 1 to 10?

  • this one with the ejecting shells 1 a tanaka gas verson 9.4

  • AwSoMe i want it for my bday! :p can u mail it to me???

  • Not only a sniper rifle , but u can ofc use it as one :)

  • where can i get this awesome thing?! i want it for christmas, and thats the only thing i want! I WANT 1

  • Airsoft atlanta, but it is $500.

  • its a Infantry rifle but they just add other features on the Infantry ones and then add the scope on and then there you go a Sniper Rifle now ppl say the Kar98 only served as sniper yeah i would liek to say this to any one who thinks that Think Again the Kar98 was a Infantry RIfle the only reason it would be a sniper is special featrue and the scope!

  • can you buy the scope or does it just not exist for the airsoft version?

  • how do you convert it just wonderin

  • doesnt look airsoft.... but where did you get this dude?

  • ok gentlemen. the 1898 gewehr was copied by springfield to make the 1903, in fact it copied it EXACTLY so, mauser got pissed and sued them. the 1903 and 1898 mauser do not come with scopes. no rifle EVER should be made with scope only unless it is custom made.

  • How convienent, I'm sure then, that a sniper would very well want a custom-made make of the rifle. It makes sense to me at least...

  • well, to actually make a sniper out of the K98's you had to drill and tap the top where the sights were, so only so many were made like that, cause it wasnt truly convenient to do it if a infantryman wasnt gunna have a scope.

    you CAN convert it, its just more difficult since the tapping and drilling

  • what r u talking about the Kar 98 was always equiped with scopes the 98k wasnt that was for cqc u could say

  • yes a normal battle rifle issued to ALL german soldiers, aside from those specialized in mp40, or g43, or one of the mg's. was equipped with scopes. learn some weapon information rather than playing COD WaW.

  • what r u talking about i get my info from experience i no what guns can and connot be equipped with scopes and in that game the have the 98k not the 98 whice has a shorter berrel the the 98 like i said befor one is for long range the other was for more urban areas like villages or small towns

  • Comment removed

  • the karabiner 98k was issued as a standard infantry weapon. or as its known the KAR98

    in ww1 they were using a gewehr 98 the kar98k's "father"

  • the k stands for karabin or carbine in english term which is a shorter rang barrel for close incounters it like the mosin nagant theres th m44 which has a short barrel and there is the 91/30 which has a longer barrel

  • yes, but the Karabiner was standard issue. it was shorter than the old 98 in ww1.

  • @kennyclone the m1903a4 had a built in scope mount because it was the sniper varieant retard

  • @chimichanga1254 calling me a retard and yet you cannot spell variant.

    also fucktard just cause a rifle has scope mounts does not make it a sniper rifle.

  • @kennyclone ok thats also y they removed the iron sights on the gun ik its not a sniper dipshit im just sayin alot of them have scopes on them

  • @chimichanga1254 wrong

  • @fuzzyboy501 no a springfield m1903a4 has no iron sights a1-13 has them

  • @kennyclone Well can you guess what the primary sniper rifles of the Wehrmacht/S.S. and the USMC/USAC was?

    Kar98K and M1903A3 rifles.

    and yes the springfield rifle in Saving Private Ryan had total truth to it. Had he been a regular soldier he would have been issued a M1 Garand. I believe that the U.S. Army during that tme stopped the using 1903s for the infantry. Only issued them to snipers. If you look at the german sniper in the church battle scene you will see that he has a Kar98k.

  • @KMCmasterpiece ok so i was hasty to say that no rifle should be made into a sniper unless its custom made, but it has its truths, the standard 1903's and K98's didnt have scope mounts on them. they had to be drilled and tapped specifically to have a scope put on regular soldiers couldnt do this in the field. so they were custom in that sense. also the 1903 saw quite a bit of service with the Marines in japan since the m1 garand had quite short production early in the war. so 1903 saw service

  • @KMCmasterpiece The two things wrong with the Springfield rifle in saving private Ryan is that it is a 1903A4 not A3 the A4 was a marine corps issue sniper rifle that lacked the iron sites US army used the A3 that still had iron sights. Two scopes are used in the film the small one is a 2.5 power Redfield used by the US army on the 1903A3 the big one is an 8 power Unertl scope used by the marines. So his rifle is wrong and he should only use the Redfield scope as hes an army ranger

  • @kennyclone actually they copied the mauser 98 action and tweaked it. it wasnt an exact copy of the 98 gewehr. it was of the 98 mauser. and not exact by any means.

  • Where do you get these guns?

  • m8 that model aint a sniper

  • and yeah about saving private ryan ther was a scoup wahts up with that ? , and i know that ther was no scoup on the springfild till WWII soo now im just comfused ?! some body reply! plz

  • actually they did, not all but they did, only people designated as "snipers" were issued scopes. my great-grandfather fought in the war to end all wars (ww1) and he said he was friends wth a guy who was a sniper who was eventually killed. i have a picture of him and his friend and his friends rifle (which is on the ground) has a scope on it

  • then they realy screwed up in DoD ( a game )

    in DoD the springfild has a scoup...

    in real life can you atac a scoup to the springfild ? plz reply i want to know...

  • Yes, later in life, the M1903 was used as a sniper rifle.

  • have u converted to the m1903 yet?

    and were do u get the kits from or do u use real steal guns

  • there was a guy using this in a scott the doughie video, man he hit someone from 270 feet!

  • is this the D-Boys?

  • nothing can help you

  • Why do you say that?

  • if its a sniper weres the scope

  • u don't need a scope for EVERY sniper rifle, sometime ppl r skilled enough at snipers that they dont ned a scope, they just use the sights on the gun

  • if you dont need a scope for it to be a sniper why did they call a scopeless springfield a sniper or the mosin

  • i mean didn't

  • the first spring fild didnt have a scop and it was a sniper rifle...

  • the springfield was just a rifle with out a scope a my father can prove it

  • 1st gen. 1903s may not have had scopes. It is a bit of a stretch to say that NO springfield 1903 has ever had a scope. Therefore, I disagree with you.

    While it is only a movie, I'm sure there was some truth to the one used in saving private ryan. I'm quite sure that springfields occasionally had a scope on them.

  • dude i agree about 1903 but back im talking about world war 2 were they classified a sniper rifle a rifle with a scope and rifle with out a scope a semi auto or a bolt action rifle

  • its a 1903 mauser right.

  • @JeffHardy: Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Mauser a German company that created the Kar 98. And the 1903 Springfield was made by, well, Springfield Armory.

  • pretty much

  • No Springfield ever had a scope on it. Springfield only manufactured the M1903 which was an infantry rifle. The sniper model was the M1903a4 which was manufactured by Remington only.

  • Not ever sniper rifle is required to have a scope. The first generation Springfield, which was the primary weapon in WWI, didn't have a scope because I don't think that they could give out scopes to every single riflemen in the army. They just gave it to the talented sharp shooters who can hit a dime a mile away.

  • they were not 1903's! they were the "Lee Enfield"

    the 1903 was modeled after it

  • ur turning a WW11 German rifle into an airsoft gun? WOW!

  • it was already an airsoft he just converting it to a different airsoft rifle dipshit

  • If this were a real-steel rifle, why in the hell would I even consider converting it into an airsoft gun?

    It's already an airsoft gun, it does not belong to me, and I really don't know if or when the conversion is going to be done... nor do I really care to be honest.

  • where u get these guns?

  • REALLY arguing over the internet is Fuckin retarded

  • No, people have good discussions, it's just typing.... Arguing about stupid stuff/flaming is what's retarded.

  • german sniper rifle...you are idiot,regular army using it from 1935 to 1945 ,snipers using it-yes,but it was a infantry rifle

  • you are idiot?

  • are you gay?

  • i dont know, am i?

  • I'm an idiot for stating that it was a sniper rile?

    The gun was used as both bud. It depends on who was behind the trigger. If I want to call it a WW2 sniper rifle, I will call it that. Neither description is inaccurate. It was used as both.

  • I agree with bubba. It was both. Mainly an infantry rifle sure, but it was also used as a sharpshooter rifle (though those models were distinct in some ways, since few kar98ks were capable of actually having a scope)

  • You can mount a scope on any 98k.

  • You can mount aftermarket scopes by replacing the rear sight, sure. But in WW2, there was distinct sniper variations of the kar98k that supported a claw-style mount, or a turret mount. As far as I know, there were no scopes that replaced the rear sight in WW2.

  • the 98k was the standart rifle of the wehrmacht, not only a sniper rifle...

  • where do you get the real wood version

  • y dont you just by a springfield instead of converting it

  • nearly impossible to find!

  • There is one that exists, but it was $1300... that is a bit ridiculous for a bolt-action airsoft rifle.

    Not to mention, this is not my gun.

  • i am wondering how u custom made the springfield

    could u give me tips on how 2 do it?

  • Dboys?

  • No. He made it.

  • y would you tern that into a sring field 1903 its cool as a 98k

  • it's not necessarily a sniper rifle. it is accurate enough to be considered a sniper rifle, but there are select Mauser K98's that have been coverted to sniper variants. I own two of them. one has a standard scope and the other has a long-eye-relief scope

  • can i have one of your guns??

  • acutally i hav the real gun

  • i hav the real wood version

  • were do u get ur ww2 guns

  • hey i'm going to buy this gun ^.^

    i am just wondering how long it is in inches. =)

  • I don't have it with me unfortauntely... but I'm guessing it was over 25 inches long. Look it up though, because I am not sure.

    Good luck : )

  • ok im 100 percent german and that IS a sniper in german weapon terms im sure many people think its a rifle due to what call of duty says great video

  • Comment removed

  • Thanks for being the 10000000 person to say that.

    Move along... this news is old.

    Again, IT DEPENDS ON THE GUY BEHIND THE RIFLE. IF HE IS A SNIPER, IT IS A SNIPER RIFLE. IF HE'S AN INFANTRY MAN, IT'S AN INFANTRY RIFLE.

    I'm SICK of this.... Gettin rdy to disable comments for this video really fast.

  • It was dubbed the Karabiner 98 Kurz, you being German I'm sure you know what that means, point is, it wasn't originally intended to be used as such. In my opinion it's a rifle. I share my opinion with many members of the Wehrmact and W/SS serving 64+ years ago.

    Bubba, good luck with your project! Hope all goes well with the rifle, keep us posted!

    Cheers, have a cold one!

  • What website sells it??? I can't find one!

  • where did you bought it originaly ?

  • its not a designated sniper

  • Just bought one, I love the feeling and realism. Do you happen to know what type of precision barrel do I have to get? Length-wise.

  • Geez, I never looked into that bud. The gun is not mine, so I never had an interest in upgrading its internals.

    If I had to take a guess, I would compare it with the M15A4 barrel. Don't take my word for it though, do research before you buy one.

  • hey man im thinkin of getting one but the barrel might be the only thing stopping me so idk, help me out if u can

  • You definitely need a barrel, the accuracy is way lower than a pistol :P I didn't found out what barrel is needed but I`ll put a comment here when I do.

  • deffinatly private message me about that too dude

  • just saying its not a sniper its a basic infantry rifle now if it has a scope it would be a sniper

  • I disagree. Have you seen Enemy at the Gates? It depends on the shooter. A sniper can do it with or without a scope.

    Both ways are done in that movie.

  • Very true,But a vast majority of the german army used Kar98s.

  • is that dboys our marushin

  • Sick gun, i've got a real one though

  • Sweet. too bad cuz in my country we're only allowed see-thru.....sucks.

  • what sad sad place is that, omg their such jerks :( :(

  • what company is this from? d-boys? im thinking of buying it from airsoftgi, please message me back, thanks.

  • Yes, this is the d-boys model.

  • OMG i just love that gun.

    greetings from germany!

  • Good to hear. Always respect any sort of weapon and as long as you're responsible, you will have some great times with them.

    Keep up the learning, there's always something new to discover with firearms, which is why I enjoy the hell out of em. (Real or airsoft)

    Try getting out to a gun show if you have any in your city. They are awesome, well worth the time.

  • man i would love to have a ww2 airsoft but r damn goverment doesnt aloow us to buy thoes from America we can only have thoes shitty c threw ones but some of them r good. im jelous lol XD

  • Yes the kar98k was a shorter version of the kar98 correct me if im wrong. The

    7.92x57 was a great round while shorter than the 30-06 it had a greater sized bullet and more foot per pound and it was both an infantry rifle and a sniper rifle.

  • EVERYBODY! It is both a sniper rifle and an infantry rifle. the more advanced soilders used them as med ranged weapons while the novices used them as snipers. it was incredibly effective with a scope in WW2 so stop saying it is one or the other.

  • O.O my favorite rifle in history

  • lol, so many people who think they know what there talking about because they play call of duty world at war, i play it to (or used to) but the kar was used both as and infantry rifle AND a sniper rifle during ww2, mostly as a sniper when the gewer another semi auto weapons began to be used more frequently. i love this rifle and want a real one, but ill never be able to get one without some sort of mirical so this airsoft interests me :P

  • After the creation of the Gewher Rifle the Kar98K was a Sniper.  It was prefered because it was more accurate and had a better reliabilty. Do your research next time.

  • Thank you for the info. I had heard something in regards to this, but was never quite sure.

  • No problem im a WW2 know-it-all. It pisses me off to see ignorant 12 year olds talk about what they think they know but in fact dont know Horse F*** about it. I cencored it because It would be rude to curse in a place with so many five year olds.

  • Agreed... I think the main problem here is because the Kar is featured in the new Call of Duty game. Everyone who thinks they know anything about it wants to throw in their two-cents.

  • Rofl..... Kar98k isn´t sniper rifle.....xDDDD

  • What is this, the week of the gamers? I can't believe how many recent comments have phrases like "noob", "rofl", and stupid smiley face characters... you guys sure love to run your mouths over messages. Yet, why don't you get this bold in person?

    Just tired of it, that's all.

  • xD I only said that Kar98k wasn´t sniper rifle Kar was infantry rifle..... Yes, if you add scope you can use it as sniper rifle(in airsoft) but it´s just rifle.... How old R U??? xD

  • My point to you is that someone who constantly uses "xD" faces, or "ROFL" phrases looks pretty immature. Do you understand now? It speaks volumes about your character, and it's annoying.

    As for the gun being infantry or sniper, it doesn't matter. It was used for both. It all depends on who was using it.

    Quite frankly, I'm just tired of ridiculous comments from young teens. It's old.

  • sniper rifle lol its infantry rifle,you can say dragunov or something is sniper rifle

  • mp 40 is one of mt favorite guns from ww2 and the fg 42....... ,its freaking deadly as a sniper

  • were do u buy that?

  • there are some on kapowwe

  • do they ship to canada?

  • i dont think so....

  • what about england?

  • just make it like a wooden K98

  • how is tht an airsoft gun when a shell pops out

  • little thing u say in the beginning, Its not only sniper... It was one of the standard guns in the german infanr'try!

  • dude that gun is beast yo.

  • which is better:

    Tanaka Kar 98k

    Marushin Kar 98k

    DBOYS Kar 98k

  • hey dood well depends on how much fps they have and if you dont mind me aasking where r u gettin them from?

  • Tanaka is the best

  • tanaka zaaa best of zaaaaaaa best

  • also were can i get a scope for the kar98k

  • dude i just love airsoft im going wit my team today to pratice

  • How do you convert it from plastic to wood?

  • The kar98k was a STANDARD ISSUE rifle for the Germans in worldwar 2 like how ares was the M1garand in world war

  • ITS NOT A SNIPER RIFLE!!!!!!!! I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE CALL THE KAR98K A SNIPER!!! IT ISNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! only RIFLES with scopes are snipers. that doesnt have a scope on it. so if theres no scope, no sniper. (unless your the stupidest sniper alive trying to snipe with only iron sights(ive tryed,,,,,doesnt work))

  • snipers dont need scopes, Vasilli Zaitsev at first didnt use a scope. it is said no where that a sniper needs to have a scope

  • Asmufilastikolemit? what? kar98k's arent snipers though.

  • Vasili Zaitsev is was a russian sniper from russia in ww2, who got many kills.

    I dont see why Kar98ks arent snipers. They were used as such

  • Comment removed

  • During world war two i bet there was more than 10000 vasilis in russia. i think you have been playing to many video games

  • no scope= bolt action rifle

    with scope= sniper

    problem solved. oh and can u mount a scope on this????

  • I think it's best said that it depends on the individual behind the rifle. Even the M1 Garand has been used as a sniper rifle, but only snipers can use it as such.

    Anyone can fire a gun and kill...  FEW can fire a gun extremely accurately from impressive distances and still hit their mark. That is what dictates the sniper rifle.

    I called the gun a sniper rifle in my video, because it just resembles a rifle that a sniper would use.... I don't know why it caused such a debate.

  • ur fucking dumb, youre saying if i grabbed an m24 or an l96a1 and just took the scope off of it its suddenly not a sniper? what a fucking tard

  • im saying if its a rifle and you put a scope on it then its considered a sniper, the standard u.s sniper is a semi-auto m4 with a scope just watch top sniper, and if you dont believe me then go fuck yourself.

  • only the police group and spotters had an m4 in that event and that was like 6 people out of 66 people. the most common sniper rifle there was the SR-25, and then the M24. the Kar98k is a WW2 gun, which the Germans did use for sniping back then, . Don't believe me? go search Google, watch some more of military channel(expesially weaponology because they have a good episode on snipers), go to fort Benning, go through the marine sniper program, and tell me I am wrong.

  • i know the kar was a sniper im not retarded and on top sniper they said they were starting to mass produce the semi auto m4 and they were going to start issuing it along with the barrett m82, your wrong (you asked)

  • no, actually a sniper is a gun with an unusally high accuracy and power, and normally has a longer range than most weapons.

  • what scope will fit on this gun?

  • is that the dboys model

  • u guy make the best videoz
