SOLD - Rare Nazi G98/40 Rifle - 1943 Mfg

Description

2/21/22 - This is a rare Nazi issued rifle, made in 1943 at the FEG factory in Hungary. These rifles were originally manufactured during the early part of WWII as the Hungarian model 35, at the Metal Goods and Weapons Factory, Budapest, Hungary. After the take over of the Hungarian factory by the Germans these rifles were designated the model G98/40 and the factory was given the wartime code of "jhv". This rifle is similar in function and operation to the standard K98 rifle with nearly identical front and rear sights, making training and reissue very easy. This example is all original and correct. It has matching numbers on the bands, receiver, barrel, bolt, rear sight, and trigger housing. Stock shows its age with several scratches and dings but has very sharp waffents and serial. Minty bore. Finish on the metal parts is original throughout with very little bluing loss overall, but oxidation in most areas. Comes with cleaning rod and sight hood.
