[The Kurgan]

1942, 3166, Round, 22F, 8x57
1949, 26278, DSB, 22F, 7x57, Round Bolt Handle

Check if bolt has a guide rib and also check if the receiver has a bolt guide rail.

 

[Waffenwerke Brünn]

They both do.

 

[The Kurgan]

I assumed so. Added

 

[Waffenwerke Brünn]

No, 22F. Short barrel, full stock/stutzen.

 

[The Kurgan]

No, 22F.

Yes, sorry, fixed. Does it have claw mounts and original scope?

 

[Waffenwerke Brünn]

No, aftermarket scopes and mounts for both rifles. The 1942 has a Balvar scope and mount.

I'll add, but this is the first time I've seen this.

Is it possible it's a poorly struck 4 in the year? Anyone else have pictures of the year stamp on their 54s?

It certainly looks like a 1 not 4

 

[The Kurgan]

It certainly looks like a 1 not 4

It could be a factory error

 

[The Kurgan]

ok all updated. Please confirm accuracy guys.

 

[Waffenwerke Brünn]

Here's a few I don't see listed . 22H , 7x57 , DSB , DST , # 24268 ,Mint condition ,best I have seen so far . Next is a 22F , 7x57 , DSB , DST # 24292 . Third but not least is an "anomaly" , that is kind of "normal" with these old BRNO'S . LOL . 21H , 7x57 , DSB , factory single trigger , #36996 . Barrel is dated 55 , receiver has two proof marks . One is marked 51 , the other is marked 55 . Has different checkering on the grip , that I have seen on other 1955's . I'm guessing it was made up in 1955 from the leftover parts bin , as 1955 was the last year of production .
