Mauser G41 ( M ) Dated 1942 .8 MM Mauser cal bolt action auto loading mag fed full wood Military Rifle w/23" bbl w/ soft gun case - [ blue finish starting to fade, good wood w/leather side sling , all matching numbers including the mag & bolt, Note : also on all parts internal and external Nazi marked - Very Rare , ill- fated attempt at an autoloading rifle for the German army in WWII. Hitler specified tht the new design could not tap gas from the barrel , and had to have a "manual over - ride " in case the autoloading failed . Mauser produced the G41 (M) in answer. It uses the "Bang" system to+E122 tap the gas from the end of the barrel, which then impinges an annular ring on the barrel, driving it backwards into an operarting rod which in turn forces the action backwards. There is also a bolt handle for cocking the rifle initially. The rifle is long and heavy, with complicated machining ill suited to wartime production . The screw on muzzle cap was prone to fouling adn the annular ring+E129 changed the barrel harmonics, impairing accuracy. The legnth of the action placed the protruding magazine at an awkward location, and overall the design was a failure. According to "Hitler's Garands, only between 8,000 and 20,000 G41 (M) were produced and many were issued to troops in Stalingrad adn lost there. This piece is in excellent condition, all original , with all matching numbers and crisp cartouches. An extremely rare piece and almost impossible to upgrade. One could go a lifetime and not see another ] Ser # 9597
