    2 questions: Cleaning chain + Mauser strap

    Hi Guys.

    A friend of mine gave me these 2 items:

    1. A cleaning chain for a pistol, he thinks it is WWII, but I am not sure - what do you think, in the picture it is with a standard chain for a k98.

    2. A standard strap for a Mauser k98. It has been cut down in the width. Again my friend think this has been done in WWII for a different us by the germans - and again I am not sure - have some of you see this before?

    Best regards
    Stengaard

    PS: I posted this tread in the firearms forum, but I received no answers, so I hope a little more luck here

    Hi

    Chain is for small caliber rifles (.22)

    There was a special RG34 for .22 rifles (5,6 mm if I'm not mistaken)

    As for the strap, I see no reason to cut it down for a german soldier (all rifles could handle this strap) so it is probably cut down to fit another rifle... when this was done ?? who knows

        Thanks Tom, you could have a point with the chain

        but then someone has shortened it

        Concerning the strap, I think you are right.

        Thanks again
