What is the difference between a gewehr 98 mauser and a karabiner 98 mauser?

The second one is shorter


How do you know if it is geweher 98 or karabiner 98 or k98?

A Gewehr 98 is a bit longer than KAR98s and K98s. The Gewehr has a different bolt than Karabiners. It is pointed horizontally, while Karabiner's bolts are pointed downwards. As for K98s and KAR98s, it will take a professional to figure that out. Also, KAR98s were produced after 1935, and Gewehrs were produced before that date.


What is the difference between a mauser 98 and a k98?

First of all, Mauser made both rifles. The Mauser 98, or Gewehr 98, was a rifle produced by Mauser gun company from 1898 to 1935. The Karabiner 98, or K98, was produced by Mauser company from 1935 to 1945.Similarities: The K98's design is basically an updated Gewehr 98.It shoots the same bullet, which is 8mm Mauser.It has an internal magazine for five bullets, just like the Gewehr 98.They both had the same range, 550 yds.Differences: The Gewehr 98 weighd about 9 lbs, when the K98 weighed about 8 lbs.The Gewehr 98 was about 49.2 inches long, but the K98 was about 43 inches long.The bolt on the Gewehr 98 was straight, while th bolt on the K98 was curved down.The K98 was probably less expensive.I Just want to say a little bit of the history on both guns. The Gewehr 98 was used from 1899 to 1936 in the German army. Gewehr means "gun" in German. It was the standard-issue rifle in World war 1. When the Nazis came to power, they wanted a new rifle to replace the long Gewehr 98's, so they started developing a shorter rifle. They named the new gun the Karabiner 98. Karabiner means "carbine" in German which is another word for a shorter gun. Like I said earlier, the K98 is really a shorter version of a Gewehr 98. In 1935, the K98 entered mass production and the Gewehr 98 production stopped. Although most Gewehr 98's were put into reserve in the next 2 years, the Gewehr 98 remained with police forces and reserve units until around 1938. By time the war started in 1939, all German soldiers had the K98, with the exception of submachine guns machine guns. The K98 was the only rifle used by the German army from 1939 to 1943, until the Germans started issuing Gewehr 43 semi-automatic rifles. Even with this, the K98 was produced until the end of the war in 1945. As the war came to a close, Hitler ordered all men from 16 to 60 to go into the army. Since there were no more guns to be issued, they started taking Gewehr 98's out of the reserves and re-issuing them. These were only used for a few months as the last of the German army was defeated. Because of the K98's great design, many poor countries that had been defeated by the German army took K98's from the defeated enemy and issued them to their own army. Some countries even had left-over factories that made K98's keep building them. Ironically, since the State of Israel was founded in 1947, the Allies gave K98's that were built by Nazis to Israeli army. Most K98's were taken out of service by other countries in the 1950's and 1960's. The K98 is still used for ceremonial purposes in Germany today.

What is the difference between a Mauser Gew98 and a Mauser M98?

The Mauser Gewehr 98 was created and produced around World War I. Often times, people will say M98 to denote the Gewehr 98 or K98k. This is true because they are referring to the basic design. On the other hand, Mauser is currently producing some new, modern versions of the Mauser 98 action. This model is known as the Mauser M98. Hope this helps.

Is the k98 mauser and the gewehr the same yes or no?

K98 Mauser is a type of rifle. Gewehr is the Army Answer No. The Mauser 98 is the standard bolt-action rifle. It held 5 rounds in a box magazine. The Gewehr was a semi-automatic rifle. The G43 (or KAR43) resembled a rifle that had a 10-round box magazine that protruded below the stock. The G41 was very similar. The 44 (Sturmgewehr 44) was an assault rifle that is very similar to the Russian AK-47. It had a 30-round clip that fired 600 rounds per minute. Also, the German Army was called the Wehrmacht. Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karabiner_98k http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gewehr_43 Actually gewehr is the German word for rifle. A K98 is a gewehr. But when most hear the word gewehr, they do think of the G43, gewehr being a part of its designation.

The German Gewehr 98 rifle and its derivatives.
