In this video I show the Luftwaffe contract rifle from Steyr, the G.12/34 also incorrectly known as the G29(ö).

The hollowed out recoil lug might be for the bolt take down since it doesn’t have the usual stock disc.

I have a Mexican Mauser rifle in 7mm that is made by Steyr and the Mexican crest is stamped with the year 1910.

Had a buddy I shoot with ask me if I wanted to buy a mauser. He knows I like a lot of milsurps so he he brings me the 660 code and I thought it looked different. Thanks to this video. Everything checked out and is a g12/34. Mismatched bolt

[@txtifosi]

Looks like a VZ24 but with a turned down bolt handle…. There’s differences in the nose cap, but it really has a VZ24 look to it.

Interesting how your Austrian rifle's production dates roughly mirror the Finnish Winter War. I wonder if there's any connection.

I’m really starting to appreciate these weird, second tier German WW2 rifles, they’re very interesting and under appreciated. I used to have a German/Hungarian G98/40 that I foolishly sold cheap around 2012….I REALLY wish I still had that rifle.

I found and bought a yugo M24/47 4 weeks ago

I have a 1938 660 styer luftwaffe mauser serial number 1627 numbers matching so not certain your information is correct. Luftwaffe mauser are stamped 3 times like the stock on the receiver.

I too, have a Matt that helps me find milsurp.

Wow never seen these before. I just got a g24t which was the Wehrmacht version of the Vz24

[@ar6985]

That's one tough rifle to find if you are looking for one...especially all matching. Too bad about the bolt and yes you are correct...the bolt is different than the standard 98k bolt. Most people don't know that.

[@maverickpaladin4155]

Also, it'd make a pretty cool video for you to do a brief rundown of each of the firearms on your display wall...just a thought.

Beautiful. I was just reading about this rifle on Olsons book. Great videos.

[@desertpiggiehunters9790]

Awesome video. Learned alot. Thank you.

[@StevenRecknagelMusic]

Now that’s an awesome rifle I’d love to find one

[@HircineDaWolf]

cool its like a mauser 96 crossed with a vz24

[@Jordan-hl4jn]

Friend of mine from Texas bought one of these a few years ago had some stock issues but it was listed as Spanish Air Force rifle lol. He got a really good deal for it. The very few I have seen for sale start at around $4000 and up. I'm curious if you own a G24t and a G98/40 as well? I saw your video on the G33/40 so you have that one down. Of course I also like collecting the German depot captured stuff too!

[@cheesenoodles8316]

Nice rifle. Any details on the correct sling or bayonet?

[@GayActorMichaelDouglas-zd2fo]

What are your sources on the Latin American contract rifles? Only one I know about is Ball

[@dangerousfreedom4965]

How much did you get it for?$
