I have a battlefield pick-up courtesy of my father. It had to have the butt broken off to get it into a duffle bag and back into the states. About 40 years ago, I spent about $12 to buy a replacement stock for it from Sears and Roebuck (back before it became just "Sears") and manhandled the replacement. It was rough and unfinished but it fit. The M98 doesn't have the original bold so it has never fed ammo well but it shoots straight. A few years ago I took it down and went to work on the stock. It looks a lot better but I have to find someone who can make it feed 8MM from the magazine
