I have, to the best of my knowledge, a K98 Mauser. It's chambered in 8mm Mauser. On top of the receiver, the only markings are "dot, u, 1943". On the side of the receiver is "1446, Mod.98". There are no other markings on the firearm at all, and the stock has been cut down at some point. It has the "bent" bolt handle, with the small recess on the stock. I would like to know, if anyone can tell me where/who made the rifle. I am also curious why there are no other markings of any kind. I expected it to have some type of seal, such as a nazi eagle. Thanks.
