How do you tell if the mauser is a gewehr or karabiner?
Gehrwehrs are longer than Karabiners, the bolt is pointed horizontally on Gehrwehrs, Karabiner's bolts are not, and the trigger is shaped differently.
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.

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.
Where did the Germans get there weapons?
They were produced by German firearms manufacturers, like Karabiner, who created and produced the Kar98k - or Mauser - rifle.
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.
How do you tell the calibre of a model 98 Mauser?
The 98 models (Gewehr 98 and Karabiner 98) were all manufactured in 7.92x57. Some K98 carbines were later rechambered for the 7.62x51 NATO cartridge, but these are visibly marked as such. Somewhere on the rifle (usually on the underside of the barrel), there will be an importer's mark, which will identify the importer, country of manufacture, and cartridge the rifle is chambered for.
What kind of mauser do you have?
Karabiner 98 (wartime production), Yugoslav M48A, Argentine Modelo 1909, Swedish M/96, and Brazilian Mod. 1908.
What weapon might have had the widest use during World War I?
The German Gewehr 98 rifle and its derivatives. The reason behind this was because of the Mauser bolt-action design that was used in this rifle was so reliable and robust that it was copied by numerous other nations. The American Springfield 1903, for example, was almost a direct copy of the Gewehr 98. Springfield was actually sued by Mauser at one point because of the similaries.
How is a German Mauser 98-29 different from other Mauser's?
All mausers are different because of the different models that were made for different nations. The Mauser Model 98-29 was manufactured in Czechoslovakia for the Persian Army. Based upon their requests, the rifle is longer than most and would be about the length of a Gewehr 98 in World War I.
