The **Pre-War Kar98k** is a German Bolt-Action Rifle part of the Moscow Axis' arsenal. **Pre-War Kar98k's** were sold and shipped to other countries before the war and after, many Kar98ks captured by the soviets were distributed around the world.

## Overview

The **Pre-War Kar98k** rechambers rounds faster than the Kar98k does and reloads slightly faster than it's Successors but shares the same stats otherwise. Still capable of doing damage at a faster pace, the **Pre-War Kar98k** is a nice rifle to use, though, the iron sights aren't as clear as the normal Kar98k, nor does it have the front ring.

### Pros

* Fast firing and rechamber speeds. (outpaced by the Winchester M1895)
* Capable of taking down targets within typical combat ranges in one hit.
* Low shot dispersion (Shared with all Bolt actions).

### Cons

* Due to being a Bolt action, it is less effective in CQB/Empty Magazine situations. It can potentially mount a Bayonet for added close range capability.

## Statistics

**Muzzle Velocity** - 730m/sec

**Rate of Fire** - ~68 Shots Per Minute

**Vertical Recoil -** 96

**Horizontal Recoil -** 24

The **Pre-War Kar98k with scope mount** is a German Bolt-Action Rifle
part of the Berlin Axis, Tunisia Axis and Moscow Axis'arsenals. Some Pre-War Kar98k's were used as sniper rifles, just like the normal Kar98k they used ZF-39 scopes.

## Overview

The **Pre-War Kar98k with Scope Mount** shares the ZF-39 scope of the Standard Kar98k but with a faster firerate. There is no difference in this optic and the one used by the weapon before it, including the view when looking through the iron sight. It still outpaces it's American competition, but the SVT 38 holds faster firerate and and faster reload that it, but suffers the same dropoff as any other Semi auto.

### Pros

* Fast firing and rechamber speeds. (outpaced by the Winchester M1895)
* Capable of taking down targets within typical combat ranges in one hit.
	+ Less dropoff allows the user to be effective even at the longest ranges, as most combative ranges are at most 300 meters (Shared with all Snipers).
* Low shot dispersion (Shared with all Bolt actions).

### Cons

* Due to being a Bolt action, it is less effective in CQB/Empty Magazine situations. This variant is not capable of Mounting a Bayonet either due to Sniper Scope mount.
