As someone who has been desperately seeking an ejector for almost a year, I’d be very much in favor of you parting it out!! 😄

FWIW, both bands are marked with the 4-digit serial (but no letter), in the same font, which appears to be very similar (if not matching) to the barrel and receiver).

@tokarev38 - Thanks for the info. A couple of questions: - Was numbering of the trigger guard common? I wasn’t aware that was a numbered part. - I don’t see any obvious indications the stock is two-piece. What indicators are you looking at? Thanks!!

Some more pics (I couldn’t attach them to the original post).

I recently picked up my first Radom rifle - a 1931 K29. It’s got a mix of markings and characteristics that make for a fuzzy history. The receiver and barrel match. The inside of the handguard also matches. I don’t see any serial numbers on the buttstock (but maybe I’m not looking in the right...

Thanks…but it’s the ejector that’s missing, not the extractor. 🙁

I've been looking - but I probably need to have more automatic alerts set up!

Bumping this up again - no luck with any other sources.

Here’s my G98/40.

I have a fairly nice G98/40 with one exception: it’s missing the ejector. I tried calling Jack First (I know they used to produce them) but they stopped and they don’t have any collecting dust anywhere. Is there any source for an ejector - other than finding another G98/40 or 43M and parting it...

I went down that rabbit hole with the same marking on my G98/40…there are no definitive sources for any of the theories. Here are some of the possible fragments I collected - none of which have any true provenance: VVV υπουργείο, it means ministry Legion λεγεώνας Popular Λαϊκός People (mass)...

@krukster86

Yes - inside the stock channel and inside the handguard would be correct. It’s too bad…it looks like a nice rifle otherwise.

Not quite the same thing as the “completely matching” you stated in your first post. Having numbered parts that match versus having all the numbered parts makes a big difference. The stock and the inside of the handguard should be numbered to the rifle. Are they? The front and rear bands should...

I always enjoyed his posts…and I thought his screen name was clever. Peace for his family and friends. 😔
