lancaster: makes sense, the closer to 1942 the fewer sporting rifles were being produced.
A shame factory records 'went somewhere' during or after the war. Which is another reason for M-S enthusiasts to work together to help gather information on them. No, I'm not on some major crusade here, but interested in the Made in Germany marked rifles. A small piece of the M-S history pie!

HistoricBore: the Made in Germany, proofed .39 I have is S/N 25,2xx. Quite likely you'll find a .39 on your rifle? Thank you for sharing.

It would be appreciated if others would share in on this query of Made in Germany marked M-S's.
It's how we learn more of the history of Mannlicher Schoenauer firearms - it's called sharing.
If I've made enough Posts in the Forum, or what it takes to post pictures, will post some of the Made in Germany Model 1903 I've provided a home for since 1977.

At the 1998 Mannlicher Collector's Association banquet held in western Washington, over dinner I spoke with Don Henry (founder and President of the MCA) and he commented that in all of his years of collecting and researching M-S rifles, including trips to Europe and the Steyr factory, he had seen maybe 11 rifles marked Made in Germany. In Alaska and the Pacific Northwestern states of the United States, since 1977, I have seen 3 such marked rifles. Of course there's more out there, though we may never know how many, but with the help of some folks in the Forum here, we might all learn more about them and maybe get a better feel on how many might have been made... thank you
