    Farsi Persian Script on a 98/29 Mauser, Made at Brno Arsenal in 1934

    The rifle's Serial Number is on the left side of the receiver ring. There is also Farsi script on the right side of the receiver ring. What is the meaning of this script ? (Proof Marks ?)

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    There is written "Tofang-e namunah 1309 Karkhaneh eslihah-e sazi Brno", which means: Rifle model 1309, Brno arsenal.
