Revision as of 20:21, 17 May 2012

The Scoped Mauser rifle is a semi-automatic sniper rifle. It resembles the real life Karabiner 98 Kurz, although the latter is a bolt action rifle.

Location

It is first obtained on the first level of Dark Secret. It's in Kessler's house, on a table, later on can be obtained from the hands of enemies or found in secret areas.

Notes

  • This gun uses 7.92mm ammunition and has a 10 round magazine with a maximum reserve supply of 200 rounds.
  • A version without the scope also exist, as a separate weapon, they share the same ammo, you cannot use unscoped version if you have a scoped one, however.
  • For some reason, simply looking through the scope increases damage almost three-fold (55 hit points vs 20).
  • It doesn't have visible crosshairs when not zoomed in.

Behind the scenes

  • Even though it is not specified in-game, it is reasonable to assume that this is a Karabiner 98 Kurz. The kar98k was a bolt action rifle manufactured by Mauser, and the primary German service rifle until the end of World War II in 1945.
  • The Kar98k's true capacity is 5 rounds.
  • The scope is based on real life ZF41 scope.
  • Bolt action is not visible in this game.
