So I was browsing a small local gun shop and I found something odd. it was a short 8mm Mauser (model 98). I've never seen a carbine version of the rifle before and I can't seem to find any on google either. Probably only a 18" barrel. Its a beefy one too, thicker near the front and steps down smaller halfway to the front
It was from 1940 (so WWII era) with a a sub 1500 serial number (all matching). it was in good shape especially for it's age. It still has the Nazi coat of arms stamped on the rifle.
I don't have a picture, but I was hoping someone could help me identify it and give me some info whether its worth something
