If it's a surplus rifle, you want to order it from someone you really trust or examine in closely before you buy it. Make sure that the bore condition is good and that the headspacing is safe.
And I'd be suprised if the Israiles (and yes, that is ironic as fuck) were using mismached rebuilt k-98s with a scope simply screwed onto the top. I'm sure they were only using the pick of the litter, then doing some accuracy work on them. Think of the German sniper variations of the k-98. Not exactly representive of the rest of the guns, were they? Our 1903s, same deal.
