1888-05-38 Turk commission rifle parts needed

Does anyone know where I can get a magazine cartridge stop or connector for a 188-05-38 Turk built on a commision rifle receiver?

This is a blade/part that is similar to a Moison rifle ejector that holds the cartridges in the magazine, this part, a spring, and a spring screw was added after the En Bloc clip was obsoleted.

1943 K.Kale Long rifle

feeds@yuku.com (6mmIntl) — Fri, 16 May 2008 01:46:50 GMT

I just picked up a all matching K.Kale Long rifle # 1245XX with a pristene bore for $200, bluing is dark blue with no rust and about 95%, stock has minor dings and some oil soaking that I have been heating out.

Strangly it has brass screws for the buttplate, slingswivel, cleaning rod, and a brass center tube for the stock "firing pin tool" thruhole with steel flanges.

Overall about a 90% condition rifle that does not seem to have been issued for any use.

New K.Kale...fate unknown

feeds@yuku.com (bayouray) — Thu, 01 May 2008 12:46:21 GMT

I picked up a KKale turk from gunbroker a few weeks ago. From the pics on line it appeared to have some "hidden" figure in the walnut stock. Got the rifle in and I think it has potential to be a beautiful stock once refinished. I would be very pleased if it looks anything like the one on the Turk forum header. If not I will just use the action for a build. No pictures yet but I plan to do some before and after pics once I get some time to get going.

I'm new here, just coming up to speed.

I'm looking for accessories for my Turkish Mauser. Bayonet, sling, tools, etc.

Anyone know of any reputable dealers?

Gewehr Turk?

feeds@yuku.com (chitownguy) — Sun, 06 Apr 2008 17:06:52 GMT

The barreled receiver I bought has the serial number across the base, near where you put the bolt in. The 98 bolt I bought seems too long and I don't think any amount of moification could make it right, I heard some of the gewehrs were sent to turkey and modified to 8mm and marked ankara, like other turks. Is that why the bolt doesnt fit, or could it be something else?

Turk stocks

How can I get all the crud out of my m38 stock to find out if it has a hidden beautiful grain like the one in the header picture. Someone said use 'purple power'. Is it some kind of degreaser? Oh the agony of your face sticking to the stock when firing. HeeHee.

Rear sight view blocked by upper hand guard.

feeds@yuku.com (BIGJOHN1) — Sun, 09 Dec 2007 05:29:31 GMT

On some of my Turkish Mauser's. I cant acquire a sight picture at the lower settings 100-400 Varies on different rifles. Because the wood on the upper hand guard is too tall . Would sanding this down enough to be able to use the lower settings Hurt the value if any of these rifles. I buy all my rifles to shoot in original form . I'm not a collector but I try to leave my turks as close to original as possible. Anyone else encountered this problem. Any info would be appreciated.

Restoring a bubbafied turk

Clearing up my Turk Confusion

feeds@yuku.com (IZH27) — Thu, 02 Aug 2007 16:42:34 GMT

Hello,
I usually don't post any in this part of the forum because to date I've not owned any turks. A local gun/pawn shop has had a nice turk hanging around for 1 year. It now has a brother and the previously quoted price of 85$ has now come down to "take your pick for 75$".

Here's where I freeze a bit. I'm not sure what I'm looking at and my research hasn't cleared it up. So I'm coming to the experts....

1948 Turk Mauser: Anybody know the story?

feeds@yuku.com (Steamrabbit) — Mon, 25 Jun 2007 11:22:17 GMT

I'm re-stocking a Turkish Mauser for my brother and I only just noticed a few odd things about it. It is stamped '1948' and is not a K Kale. It also has a hole in the trigger guard. Based on the year, the lack of a K Kale stamp and the hole in the trigger guard, I would think that this is one of the re-worked German GEWs.

However, it also has that distinctive ring of pointless extra metal where the receiver meets the barrel; which I have also seen on all of my own model of 1938 K. Kale...

Sporterized Model of 1893

feeds@yuku.com (oldbikewrench) — Tue, 20 Mar 2007 21:56:57 GMT

A friend of mine told me a while back he had this old hunting rifle with some strange writing on it. And the next time I was over his way I should check it out.
Well it turns out to be a Model of 1893 made in 1895. It is chambered in 6.5x55 and has a Bishop made stock. It has not been used in a few years and needs a little TLC which my friend says he will administer this weekend.
It is scoped so the safety is not to functional. At least I don't think it is. I'm mighty new to a lot of...

I know he has noticed that there were no posts in the Turk forum in March yet. It has to be bugging him, so I will cut the suspense.

Anyone have anything new?
I have got to take some pics of mine! Soon! I know we like pics.

Someone nameless, in one of those Scandinavian forums- I think they eat reindeer, said that "the lowly Turk" forum has more posts than they do.
I propose trying to get twice as many posts as they have going here.
I will post pics of my Turk, after I clean the cosmoline off, this weekend with a good description to follow.
If you have a Turk post here about it. If you have pics post 'em!
