If only she had known how much money she could get for that weapon....

Another thing that makes me wonder, where did she got her ammo supply...
I don't think that she's a member of a combat group... maybe something like a modern version of the african war dances (background). In this way she won't need ammunition. ;)

Best regards and till Friday,

Indeed. The one for the K98 fitted onto the MP44 and on the later MP43 with the turned down barrel.
