German K98 Mauser Stock Set – Yugoslavian Refurb with Handguard, Barrel Bands
This is a wartime German K98 Mauser stock set, refurbished postwar by Yugoslavia during their extensive rework program. It includes the full-length hardwood stock, upper handguard, and both front and rear K98-style barrel bands. Originally manufactured for the Wehrmacht, these stocks were later sanitized and repurposed for Yugo military use, preserving most of the German profile and construction characteristics.
The stock features a cupped buttplate recess, correct handguard contour, and milled sling cutout. The Yugoslav arsenals often scrubbed original Waffenamt markings during refurbishment, but many German details—such as the stock profile, sling well, and barrel band types—remain intact. The included barrel bands are steel, blued, and serviceable, with authentic wear consistent with decades of military use.
These German/Yugo stocks are ideal for restoring K98 rifles that have lost their original wood, especially those built from Yugo-surplus parts kits or RC imports. This stock is free of cracks or repairs, with only light field wear and dings. No major structural damage, and all hardware fits snugly.
Whether you’re restoring a historical shooter or want an affordable way to return your Karabiner 98 to its former glory, this stock set offers solid functionality with genuine Cold War history layered over its WWII roots.
