J.P. Sauer K98k Serials and Data, 1934-1944

J. P. Sauer. Bcd4

Bcd 4 e/37 acceptance on right receiver, serial 6393 t (cursive), small eagle firing proof. Barrel code ce dg e/37 (twice). Not RC, NIM. Matching stock, serial numbers in stock channels, small take down disk, small e/37 on keel, small eagle, large H. Most bolt parts have i or l. TG stamped byf 135 no number, FP numbered and machined. Butt cap red primer, stamped jvd.
 
RC but the receiver/barrel are 1937, 3969 h. I believe the stock could be 1937/38 also. What do you think? Maybe a lucky match? The number in the channel on the stock is 450?. Can't make out the last digit.

1943 block 'CE' 4593 'n?' Not really sure what the letter block is. The '3' looks struck over another number, but all the bolt parts, trigger guard, rear sight components, and floorplate have a '3'.

1942 script 'CE' 6269 'g'.

I have a bolt-mismatch S/147, serial 9249, 1936. Weimar eagles, H-marked stock, WaA 214 on the stock and various parts, with an additonal WaA 115 on the receiver (next to two 214 stamps). Bolt matches itself with serial 1472b. Stock-disk is marked N1098 with a WaA 214 and the letter "k".

Can you do images of the right receiver on the ce/41?

The ce/42 with the dfb (BSW) barrel, are you sure that is e/37 on the "barrel"? Should be e/4, also what is the character before the "V" on the barrel? It should be a two character code- probably "FV".

The ce/44 should have a lot number in the barrel code?

You will have the info you request on late Thursday night.

My apologies, the info and photos will have to wait until Monday. Im on a business trip and left my guns at home... :(

Thanks, - BSW-dfb sub-contract barrels are not commonly encountered, and only in a fairly narrow range on S&S.

Posted up the extra/corrected info and picture in my original post. My apologies for the delay. You were right about the questionable e/37 proofs, they were in fact WaA4. Would you say that the ce42 with the dfb barrel is rare or uncommon? If so, it's such a shame that the bore is garbage.
