Some people may be getting
the mistaken impression that these rifles were manufactured by Germans
during the occupation. That is not the case. These rifles were
manufactured with German technology in Serbia after the people had driven
the Germans out of Yugoslavia.
This is an important distinction, because that is one
of the reasons why the Model 48 is recognized as an excellent example of the
K98 type military rifle. The factory in Serbia was not bombed, like the
German factories during the war. The factory in Serbia had a good supply
of raw materials. And the Model 48 was produced by free people, instead of
forced labor. All of which resulted in an excellent rifle in its own right,
as well as an interesting piece of history.
