My G33/40. Let the Slings and Arrows Begin!

I picked this up at a mom & pop gun shop/motorcycle shop in 1968 when I was in college. It was tagged as a K98, not a G33/40. The price also reflected that of a K98k, not a G33/40. At any rate, I've owned it since then, and the only addition to it is the cleaning rod from SARCO. All the markings are the ones on it when I walked out of the shop.
Since there are SNs on the barrel band, the forestock band, the follower and floorplate, I assume this made a trip to the armorer's shop. I've been told that that would be source of the extra stamps. The barrel is dark, but it still fires fairly accurately. It is my last Mauser. I've not been able to pass it on, yet.

Can’t see the bolt clearly

Clearly enough to see that it's not factory numbered.

the rifle has been numbered beyond what would have been done at Brunn. But, possibly post war ? These went around and were used by other countries. The Germans did add ser #'s to some Czech rifles but, I haven't seen a 33/40 re-numbered like this. I try to never say never but the font looks more modern to me. Nice rifle by the way the stock being best part. Stock numbering is legit.

6301d should be the serialing, after 1942 the production line of G33/40 was dissasembled, there is mostly all rifles went to Germany prior 1942, so reserialing by them is real, by CzechoSlovak probably not. There is serial on backside of handle of bolt. Other small numbers with different font could be added postwar in USA.
