7.92x57 "8mm" seems likely

Def Turk or Arabic

Don't use it in a semi auto and watch for hangfire but it should be fine.

Noted

Would it work in a G98?

The 7.9 is 7.92 (8mm)

I figured it was an 8mm

I should've grabbed one of the brass stripper clips too

If it's older it should use m88

1903 was when it switched to 8mm

One I was looking at was a 1914 spandau

So it should be fine then

Worse yet alot of original guns are rechambered for 8mm

And the markings conflict

That should be gtg in a 1914 provided it isn't badly reloaded

Stick caliper on projectile to make sure it isn't something else

That case looks pretty bad

The little Turkish crest is squashed so it's either been fired or reloaded twice or it was just a weak stamp

I see

What diameter and length should i check for on the projectile?

Just check to See that it's roughy 7.92mm

You own a caliper I hope

It is real isopod hours

Lol

I know where i can borrow one

[musket noises]

New CETME brake

Might have blues

Gonna buy a Makarov, what should I look for?

Baikal ij70

Any particular reason?

Also, good price range?

Just remember its milsurp even if is "new", so treat it like buying a used gun. Inspect the condition of barrel, blued finish, rust on internal parts carefully $250-400

The Russian and east german ones have the best manufacturing quality
