The last two digits of the serial number should appear on most of the smaller parts.Īt the beginning ofmost German factories were stamping the full serial number on the bolt handle root.

CHILEAN MAUSER SYMBOLS CODE
This manufacturer's code always appears as three lower case letters, usually over a two digit date code. Late ina number of German factories stopped dating with a '44' and used just a single '4', presumably to eliminate the labor to make the extra '4'. Value will depend upon condition and matching parts. Steyr, Mauser 'byf', 'svw' and Brno 'dot' were the last major producers of 98k's in and the Mauser and Brno output was dedicated to the German Army. Some factories had multiple offices, and some articles were made up of parts inspected at different factories, explaining multiple WaA numbers on a single firearm. Does anyone have any idea of the value of this rifle? It also appears on war material made at factories under Steyr supervision, such as the Radom factory in Poland. I have a Mauser model 98, that i believe was manufactured in with only 4 digits to the serial number.

Join Date Dec Posts 6, I believe the Chilean Mausers had the year in the cartouche on the left side of the butt. The one I have is a "D" with a 3 digit SN. Is there an online reference guide for these? Anyone know what they indicate? So far the only thing I've found is that those with a "C" block number were intended for South Africa. What I'm curious about is the SN block number. The working parts are in good service order as is the bore and all the SNs I've seen on it match except one. It is in decent condition but sadly the Chilean crest isn't in the best shape. There's nothing special about this one as far as I know. I like the rifle yet have never done any research into it. I'm leaning toward later but the alignment is very good.Remember Me? What's New? Forum Gunboards. It's hard to tell if that D was stamped at the same time as the numbers or later. Looks like ZB must have had more lion crest receivers than they needed for the Czechoslovak Army, so they threw some into the export rifles. According to your post it would be correct?

I have a VZ24 with the Czech lion crest, and a serial number of D It has no Czech acceptance stamps, but it does have a Romanian MC on the bottom.
