What was the original caliber of the German 98K Mauser rifle?

7.92 x 57 mm, or commonly known as 8 mm Mauser, is the correct answer. Who-ever told these people that you could fire a .308 Winchester or 30-06 Winchester round through these weapons, is trying to get someone seriously hurt.

7.62 mm refers to the diameter of the lands in the barrel. The actual bullet is normally .308 in (7.82 mm), although Soviet weapons commonly use a .310 in (7.87 mm) bullet, as do older British and Japanese cartridges.\nHope this can answer your question.

Here is a very nice world war 2 weapons site. The site is divided into sections (rifles, machine guns etc..) for every major nation involved. It even shows a picture of the weapon discussed

IF your 1886 Winchester is in good condition with no mechanical defects - and\nIF your 1886 Winchester is actually bored and chambered for the .45-70 cartridge...\nIt should safely handle modern .45-70 ammunition from the major manufacturers. (Federal, W-W, Remington) Be aware that there may be specialty ammunition from smaller "custom" loaders that exceeds the strength limitations of your rifle. \nI STRONGLY suggest that you have your rifle inspected by a gunsmith to make sure of its condition and chambering before you shoot it - the cost is minimal.\nAlso be aware that if it's in good condition your '86 is quite valuable. You might want to consider using a modern version of the same rifle for shooting and save the original as a collectible.

The Remington Model 12A had a 22 in. round or octagon barrel. 849,000 were manufactured between 1909 and 1936.\n\n100% condition $600\n98% $475\n95% $350\n90% $325\n80% $300\n70% $275\n60% $250\n\nB, C, or CS models are worth a bit more.\nYou mention engraving, this could add to the value depending on if original.

Are we talking about a gun, if so the German 88mm canon.  if we are talking about an airplane bombing a boat, the Japan Zero.

Probably the Beretta 92F or the Glock 17, both of which are 9mm.

You have not really given enough info to answer.  What is its condition.   One way for you to find out is to go to library and look in the Blue Book Of Gun Values.

Beretta 92FS (1989) – a minor modification of the Model 92F, with an enlarged hammer pin head which prevents the slide from flying back in the case of breakage. Presently, all US M9 pistols are modified to 92FS standard. See link below - at the bottom of that page is a complete list of the Beretta models and what was modified from each one.

Actually, spartanerik, the XM8 program was cancelled. The M4A1 is a good rifle, but I like the M16A4 better. It has a little more power and accuracy than the carbine, and makes for a pretty good sniper's weapon, in a pinch. (With optics, of course)

spider is a good one and 98 custom is very popular gun. i have one and i love it. the 98 custom u can change the size of the barrel and also make it look like a m4a1 aka colt carbine. the top of the line guns/markers r bob longs and angels. they have the best accuracy and firing speed but they will range from like $1000-1500+. and also u have a choice of wut gas to use. u have a choice between co2 (carbon dioxide) and also nitrogen. nitrogen imo shoots the paintball faster. u can also have a battery operated reloader. last i checked they were like 35-50. always remember to clean ur paintball gun after use so the 'dirt' from the paintballs doesnt get stuck in the chamber and not shoot.

True machine guns fire a RIFLE round, whereas submachineguns fire a PISTOL round.For example, the military M-60light machine gun fires the 7.62mm NATO (.308 Winchester) round, and the H&K MP5 submachinegun fires the 9mm pistol round.
