first off, Thanks SNEEKEE for that link. I put it up on that other board and got a bunch of information. I also posted this on up so well see what the come up with.
Second: MARK- your pretty close on that gun, i'll update it that post in a few minuts with some pictures
NOW THIS ONE-- my boss brought me a gun of his dads today and wanted me to find out what it was.
this gun has no words on it at all, not under the stock, between the stock and action, no where that i can find.
What i does have is on the side of the action it says "G 98/40" thats it? on the bottom of the floor plat it says "3665" and on the side , and to the front of the action it says "3005" it also has that on the side of the barrel. thos letters aren't wore out, they are for sure "3005" and not "30-06"
the handle to the bolt looks like a duck bill and fint into the wood stock.
The gun is in nice condition, looks to be very shootable.
i took a 30 caliber bullet and dry fit it into the barrel and it seems to be a little bigger than 30 caliber, but i'm also guessing the case is similer in size to a 30-06 case, as i took a blank 30-06 bullet and put it into the magizine and tried( very easily) to chamber it. the bolt seemed to grab it alsmost perfectly, but would have been tight to close it.
Does anybody have any idea? i cant tell what caliber it is or maybe how much it would be worth?
thanks for any info, you guys are great!
