We have a Factory Copy of an English Translation by John Baum of an original WW2 German Military Manual for the 98k Mauser 8mm (7.92mm) Rifle dated sometime right before WW2. This manual is titled General Shooting Instruction, with 30 Illustrations, Edited and Compiled by Beinz Dencfler, Beinz Dencfler Publisher, Berlin C2, On the Gluice 5n. . This manual is 5 1/2" by 8 1/2", 20 pages long and shows how to correctly aim and shoot the 98k Mauser rifle in 8mm. The manual is filled with many detailed drawings, graphs and charts designed to give the soldier the know how of how to aim and shoot the military way. It is broken down into the following chapters: 1. Motions in the weapon while shooting. 2. The bullet path. 3. The parts of the bullet path. 4. The shape of the bullet. 5. Explanation of terms. 6. Aiming. 7. Aiming instruction. 8. Influcences of weather. 9. Shot performance. 10. Dispersion of the individual weapon. 11. Cooperation of several weapons. 12. The sight range with single shots. 13.

This is a translation of a surprisingly detailed manual for the standard service rifle of the WW2 German Forces, the Mauser 98k. Even though this manual was printed in the pre war period it was in production for many years thereafter. This manual is a great read and is filled with lots of great information that unless you could read German has been unknown since WW2. This manual could take even a novice and make him an expert on the correct method of aiming and shooting of the 98 k Mauser Rifle, and with originals going in excess of $100.00 ours is quite a bargan. If you are looking for a classic manual on the early use of the 98 k Mauser Rifle then you have to look to more..... Buyer is to pay for the shipping charges!!!!!!!!
