Cam you do have an ability to ferret out some great stuff , that last photo for instance is a real gem.
The patience to stack so many K-98's !!

If there was a rep system you would be well up points on this one.

The "Norway 1945" one? The Norwegians converted the 7.92 Mausers to 7.62 NATO. They have been getting rid of these in the past years, so you can find them on the legal weapons market in Europe (well, at least in those countries where you can actually legally buy rifles ...).

What are the grenades on the far right of the first photo?

Note the Russian RDG33 grenades in the foreground in the second photo.
