BYF 44 98 Rifle with No Serial Number??

[Bert]

Thanks for the photos. That is a very nice looking rifle.

No, nothing on the rifle has been "peened". The markings that are present are very sharp. I don't have a photo hosting site so can't post photos here (I don't think I can anyway), but would be happy to send to you the photos I have. I just think it is an interesting piece.

Unnumbered 98ks are rare, but not unheard of and appearently exist from all the makers.
I have a ce 44 that is a totaly unnumbered rifle and it has all correctly/matching proofed parts to the rec. I also have a bcd 41 that is an RC. This one is a German rebarrel - .02 on bbl collar. The only ser nr on the bbl/rec is one on top of the bbl along with the RC X. The Germans missed 2 chances to put a ser nr on this one - at the factory and at the depot so the ruskies put a 2 diget one on it.
I have also heard of a ce 44, but haven't seen it.
I'd like to find an unnumbered bnz or ar.
