Description
8/3/23 -This is a rare German G33/40 Mountain carbine from World War II. They were only built at the Brno factory in Czechoslovakia and they are patterned after the Czech VZ 33. This example was made in 1942 and has the ‘dot’ factory code on the receiver. Many of the G 33/40 carbines were issued to the German ÄúGebirgstruppenÄù, or Mountain Infantry, where the metal plate on the left side of the butt was used to keep the stock from harm while using the rifle for assistance in climbing. Everything is correct and matching on the rifle, but the stock was lightly sanded at some point. ¬Serial number is still pretty clearly visible though.¬ The bluing on the metal parts is all original and in very good condition. Minor wear on the barrel and bands, and a little more on the trigger group.Excellent, shiny bore.Comes with sight hood, cleaning rod and an original sling.Matching examples have become increasingly difficult to find and this is only the third we’ve had in the last three years.
