Product Description

WORLD WAR II German WAFFENWERKE BRUNN “dot/1944” Code MAUSER K98 Rifle C&R

GERMAN OCCUPATION Third Reich Military Rifle w/SLING

Here we present a C&R German Waffenwerke Brunn “dot/1944” Code Mauser K98 Rifle manufactured in 1944 in German Occupied Bystrica. Waffenwerke Brunn AG is the name the Germans gave the small arms factory at Bystrica, Czechoslovakia, located in the former Austro-Hungarian territory of Slovakia. Prior to German occupation the factory produced VZ-24 rifles for export and the Czech military.

This is a nice example of a late war, 98k rifle. The top of the receiver is marked with “dot”, which was the wartime code for Waffenwerke Brunn A.G. in BRNO, over an “eagle 63” Waffenamt, over 1944. There are Eagle/Swastika firing proofs and other Third Reich markings.

The factory was located in the Slovak region and made k98 rifles from 1942 to 1945. One of the more unique aspects of these rifles is that most were captured by the Russians, with very few being found in the hands of U.S. Army soldiers.

The overall condition is very good. Original patina. The action is excellent. The bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. The stock shows wear and remains solid. There is a short crack that runs along the laminations just behind the receiver. There is an eagle over a swastika just behind the trigger guard. The numbers match.
