2/1/22 – This is a very rare 1940 Steyr G.29/40 that was issued to the German Navy, as indicated by the Eagle/M proof on stock. The G29/40 was a Kar.98k style rifle base around the Polish wz.29 Modell 98 rifle, and the rifles had many similarities and many of the parts could be used for production of Kar.98k rifles. They were assembled over a three year period, with about 12,500 made in 1940. The majority (about 38,000) were made in 1941 and the last 4,000 not until 1942. Most were delivered to the Kriegsmarine (German Navy), although many early rifles were delivered to the German Army. Trends research shows that almost all G29/40’s after the “a” block went to the Navy, and only about half of the earlier production went to the German Army. A total of 54,500 G29/40’s were made during the war, but many parts (components) were delivered to the Kriegsmarine and subsequently built into rifles by the Navy, these are rare in original condition. This one is completely matching (including the stock, butt plate, follower, and all parts of the rear sight), but the bolt is mismatched. It comes with an original cleaning rod and leather sling. The gun has retained most of its finish, but there is noticeable spotty discoloration and tiny pits along the whole left side of the receiver. Generally, there is also minor wear around the muzzle and around the high edges. There is some light brown patina, a few small dings, and a few light handling marks on the floor plate/trigger group. The stock is very nice with only minor dings, dents, and scratches throughout. The bore is shiny with good rifling and very minor pin-pricking in the grooves.
