Another Poll: How many Mausers in NES hands?

[majspud]

Having done Garands, I feel compelled to query about my specialty - the Mauser 98. So how many '98s are out there in NES hands? Only qualification is the classic 8mm caliber. So for example, the list includes German and foreign derivatives - the Gew98, Kar98a, K98k, Mauser Banner, G.33/40, G.24(t) - the VZ24, G.29o, G.98/40, G.29/40, etc.

Please post special pieces, variations, etc.

So, for example, I have 19:

1x Kar98a
2x Gew98
1x Banner K
12x K98k (3 depot made - XI (Hannover), XII (Mainz-Kassel), XXI (Posen); 1x Zf-41, 2x RC)
1x VZ-24 (German Modified)
1x G.98/40
1x G.29/40

Oops, I passed 5,000 posts and I missed it. Took me a month less than 9 years.

28 vs 80 Garands; definitely a minority of us.

The two other 10+ Mauser collectors; we have to get together and have a Mauser Party!

1 for me (looking to add more however). Mine's a 1938 RC K98 code 27 (ERMA)

Not enough, I have some good 8mm ammo and a gun besides mg 42 or 34 to shoot it. What's a good commodity mouser to feed to my mosin collection? Something that's common and prices are stable.
