[Set] Kar98k bolt-action rifle replica - ABS Stock [S&T] + 25rd M1903A3/Kar98k Magazine - Black [S&T] + 4x26 ZF39 Type Scope for Kar98k [S&T]

Das ZF ist wirklich gut gemacht und kommt den Original sehr nahe.
Die Seitenmontage und eine Bedienungsanleitung ist mit dazu und passt perfekt.
Wirklich sehr zu empfehlen.
Das Absehen 1 im ZF sowie die Weitsicht sind scharf und geben den Schützen ein gutes Zielen vor. Bei der Montage müssen die Madenschrauben fest angezogen werden. Bei der Justierung des ZF ist Fingerspitzengefühl gefragt.
Für das Set zu dem Preis ist eine wahre Kaufempfehlung.

This my review after two years of use on my S&T Kar98k.

Short Review:
===========
+looks god damn nice
+can use both the scope and iron sights
+pretty close to the real deal
+comes with a rail for reddots or other scopes
=hard to adjust/zero but it works
=overengineered which is very german authentic :D
=you can take down the scope easy, but you will lose zero
=fits S&T Kar98k Model 2 only
=the rail and mouting plate should be a seperate option to buy too
=may need scope caps to cover the lense from dust
-you need to remove the scope in order to adjust the hopup
-a bit harder to load the next shot because the scope is in the way
-may have few quality control issues but it is fine

Score 8/10


Long Review:
===========
Unboxing:
-----------------
-You will get two boxes, first is the scope, manual and the mount with the picatinny rail adapter.
-The scope is based on an earlier ZF39, there are lots of models but ultimately they are similar having X4 zoom (which this is), the scope itself has 26.4mm thickness.
-The mount is also based on a very early model, this allows you to connect and disconnect your scope whenever you need it. If you want to add a more modern scope (say 25mm thickness) you may need to either add tape or 3d print some "sleeves" so that it sits on the mount.
-The rail is for using either a reddot, a modern scope or.. anything like a grenade launcher, use your imagination.

Mounting:
-----------------
(short instruction since you will have to mount them together)
-You will need a screwdriver bit set since it comes (or it came for me) with no tools, a bubble level, also a stable straight place or a tripod (optional).
-First you need to remove the small plate on the left side of the bolt, it should have 3 big screws. When done you need to screw the mount plate in the place with the same screws, it should go fairly easy.
-Second find a way/place in which you can sit the rifle on a straight position, use the bubble level on the mount plate itself, when done you can mount the ring mount on the mounting plate, make sure the lever is on the direction of the buttstock before you put it on the plate, when done flip the lever on the direction of the barrel to secure it inplace.
-Third find a thick screwdriver bit that can unscrew the screws from the rings (if it is too thin you may damage them..), place the scope in a way the range wheel (the round thing on top of the scope) is between the rings.
-Fourth use the bubble level again til it is straight (or when the reticle is straight).
Congratulation you managed to mount the scope.

Zeroing/Adjustment:
-----------------
-If you intend to use this as a primary sniper DO NOT remove the scope from the lever side, but rather from the 3 screws side. You will lose all the Zeroing and adjustment if you remove from the lever and you will have do it again.
-For Zeroing UP-DOWN, the top wheel of the Scope is for how high or low your aim is, the numbers are intented for the real rifle not airsoft, but with trial and error you can reach the desire spot, simply losen the screw and rotate the wheel Clockwise for DOWN, and Counter-Clockwise for UP, when done screw it back to hold it in place.
-For Zeroing LEFT-RIGHT, you have two screws on the rear side of the mount, to aim LEFT you will have to losen the left screw and tighten the right screw, for RIGHT losen the right screw and tighten the left screw, you many need a wrench to do it.
(Please DO NOT overtighten the left and right screws since it can eat the treads of the mount, use locktight in order to keep it inplace when you have finished Zeroing.)

The Good:
-----------------
-Looks very beautiful, Sexy and close to the real deal, since there are lots of models of this it is hard to pinpoint the exact model, but it is close to original ZF39.
-The rail is a nice edition for adding other optics, while it is a bit on the left side it is no issue for Zeroing.
-You can use both the scope and iron sights with no problem, also very comfortable to use it with good eye relief.

The Normal:
-----------------
-It doesn't have many markings, only markings I see are on the scope with "JENA" logo, "Zielvier" and a serial number, while not authentic like the original having the zoom specification and different logo, still a nice touch.
-No Matching parts number like any tipical german weapon/mod, it is ok..
-While it is hard to adjust (especially when it came to LEFT-RIGHT, my fingers hurt), it is ironically very German Authentic thing :D overengineered for a very simple task, kind of like the early ww2 german semi auto rifles.
-Only fits the S&T Kar98k Model 2, please double check your gun before buying it.

The Bad:
-----------------
-It may wobble a little if hit or not properly secured inplace, you can use tape, rubber, or even glue to make it harder to move on the mounting plate. Another option (if you can and are skilled) is to drill holes through the mount on where the screw holes for the rail are located, you may need longer screws for it to secure it in place, that way you can be sure it will never lose zero when hit.
-Wish the rail and the mounting plate were as a seperated purchase option.
-My scope has a dot on the left side of the reticle, not that bad or distracting, I will call it my emotional support Hans the Dot.
-When loading, you may hit the scope with your palm when not careful, you will have to either hold about half of the bolt knob when loading, or just lift half way instead of all the way up, the rifle works either way, only the firing pin will not reset (is just cosmetic anyway).

===========
Final Thoughts
===========
It is a nice replica, while not top tier scope it does its job, defently not great for a new airsoft player or someone that doesn't know how to work with it (been there don't worry) but for gun collectors that love to have ww2 stuff may be a must.

Final Score 8/10, needs better quality control, tools and some parts needs to be sold separate as well.

Essential magazines for quick reloads with our replica, saving time in the heat of battle.
Excellent price and the online description matches the actual product.
Very good service from Taiwangun.
Shipping was well-packaged and fast

Excellent price and works perfectly.
A good option if you can't afford the wooden replica.
A good option for historical reenactments of WWII infantry and sniper rifles, as well as any battle before or after, since it saw a long period of service, such as the Spanish Civil War.
Excellent service from Taiwangun. The replica matches the description. Good packaging and fast shipping.

Nagyon gagyi recsegős műanyag, körömnyi hèzagokkal az illesztéseknèl.Egyedül talán a belső rész kárpótol ami legalább acél.Èn ilyen terméket nem mernék dobozba tenni, árúsítani.Mindenkèppen a fa testeset ajánlom aki ilyesmibe gondolkodik.

A szállítás és csomagolás rendben volt. A fegyver szép kidolgozott. Akár dísztárgy is lehetne. A hozzávaló scope passzol és jó minőségű. Még csak otthon próbáltam, játékra nem tudtam bevinni, így a használatról nem tudok írni, a próba lövések rendben
mentek. A betárazás amúgy egy élmény. Aki szereti WW2 replikákat nem csalódik.

Very strong gun. Pierced 2 layers of cardboard and left a good mark on the 3rd. Reasonably easy to load. Not only a good field weapon but also a good reenactment prop. Worth every penny in my opinion.

very pretty and good rifle when i hold it i am half german the downside is that it has old lubricant and it may get stuck when you try to fire the solution it to wipe the old lubricant from the trigger asembaly and it will work great

English: The packaging is simple but correct, it comes with a replacement spring and very basic instructions. Does not include bullets.
The replica has good appearance and weight although mine arrived with a scratch on the stock and the paint peeling off. The charger is very difficult to put in and especially to take out, you need both hands and time.
My replica fired only the first magazine, then I haven't been able to get it to fire again and I don't know the reason. Good grouping of shots and effectiveness at medium range, they all hit the target. I haven't been able to use it anymore because it doesn't load the bullets. I am not satisfied. The price of the scope is double that of the rifle, which is absurd.
Spanish: El embalaje es simple pero correcto, viene con un muelle de recambio y unas instrucciones demasiado básicas. No incluye balas.
La réplica tiene buena apariencia y peso aunque la mia llegó con un arañazo en la culata y la pintura levantada. El cargador es muy difícil de poner y sobre todo de sacar, necesitas las dos manos y tiempo.
Mi réplica disparó solo el primer cargador, después no he conseguido que vuelva a disparar y desconozco el motivo. Buena agrupación de disparos y eficacia a distancia media, dan todos en el blanco. No he podido usarla más porque no carga las balas. No estoy satisfecho. El precio de la mira es el doble que el del rifle, lo cual es absurdo.

I have had the replica for a week or two and its the best airsoft rifle i have had. Its easy to learn and shoot. The bolt was a little hard in the beginning but now i can pull it on my shoulder. The only downside i have had is that the mag sometimes malfunction but is easily fixed by screening it up and moving the spring.

I shot 4 mags of this rifle and i love it. Its really fun to shoot and just feels good in the hands. It shoots a little down to the left. The power is also great and its worth the money but not give stars because of the accuracy.

Simple magazine I've bought for my S&T Kar98k

I had zero problem with it. As it is designed for S&T bolt action rifles it fits perfectly. It is also small so you can fit it into smaller pockets, does not take up as much space as other magazines.

Be sure to have speed-loader for filling it up.

The quality on this one is realy amazing, I like how they realy managed to keep the original look from the real thing, one downside is that the closing lever from the scope mount can fall off and you wouldn't even notice it, at least that happened to me
8,5/10

Amazing quality and very good optics. It is a must have for your kar98 in my opinion. Only 3 screws needed to fit on the rifle. No other modifications needed to fit. Very authentic too. Sadly you need to upgrade your rifle for it to be useful. Both spring and pretty much all internals (except hop-up chamber and cylinder) need to be replaced.

A very good replica of the standard ZF 39 scope, a later version with a side mount. Perfect work, perfect craftsmanship. I recommend the item KAR 98K from the same manufacturer.
The only design different from the variant with mounting stones on the the rear fixed part of the weapon's breech.
I strongly recommend it to all reenactors and WW II fans.

Very nice scope
I’ve bought it because on my Kar 98 is perfect
Nice zoom and millimetres regulation
So if you want to be Wehrmacht or XX sniper buy it and mount on your Kar 98 snow wolf because it’s possible

Kötelező darab a Kar98-hoz! Kiváló minőségű. hnagyon szépen elkésztett másolat. Igazi élmény vele a lövészet. König őrnagynak érezheti magát az ember Sztálingrádban. :D Felszerelés előtt érdemes a mozgó részeknél átolajozni. Meghálálja. Kár, hogy csak 5 csillagot lehet adni rá, ez simán 6. :)

Nice little format magazines but the plastic build quality is a little on the low side. Without using them a lot I've already brokes one after a couple of times filling it, was easy to fix but have to be careful using them.
They fit very good in my k98 and do hold the amount of bb's as promised

I bought 3 of them. They work with no problems. Just to be safe I'll fill them with only 20 bbs to preserve the spring. Also, they fit in the M1923 ammo belt (for Garand clips or M1903 stripper clips). You can fit one in each pocket diagonally, but it's a tight fit.

you have to watch out the use of the magazine because its plastic. Loading perfect with a speed loader.Needs practice when you reloading the replicas its nice that it can be used for the KAR 98 and for the M1903A3
