Price is for one lug.

On the Mauser Karabiner 98k, a transverse steel cross bolt, usually called the recoil lug, passes through the wooden stock just behind the receiver. It takes up recoil, so the action can't drive rearward and split the wood. A threaded round nut, often called a recoil lug disc or cross bolt nut, screws onto the bolt from the right-hand side of the stock. It sits in a recess in the wood and holds the bolt in place. The nut is normally left in place. When the rifle is stripped, it is turned with a two-pronged spanner whose pins fit small holes drilled in the nut's face. The same stock-fixing arrangement appears on related Mauser rifles, including the Gewehr 98 and later Kar 98k-pattern guns, so these discs are not exclusive to the 98k. The part is not the same as the unthreaded bolt-disassembly discs, which are fitted in a separate hole through the butt. Collectors tell nut variants apart by diameter and thickness, by the number and placement of spanner holes, and by surface finish. Wartime production differs in finish and machining, and the nut must match the lug thread and the stock recess.
