Manufacturing codes are assigned to the various firearms manufacturers. Over the years, when these companies changed ownership or merged to form new companies with new names, they were given different manufacturing codes and used serial numbers that started with different digits. This also helps to identify how old the gun is.
I have a model 98 8 mm german mauser. All serial numbers match. It has bnz 43, says germany, 53 RU, and #9283, with initials AH carved in the stock.Any idea on value, and is there any information who it may have been assigned to?
