hey folks -
Not new to K98Ks but a new guy on the forum and had a question for you good people.
Have a dot 1944 with a barrel mfgr code that I haven't seen before.

Forward of the receiver is a small shield with the number 13 inside and to the right in large
capital English letters are FH. And to the right of the FH is the 63 waffenamt.

Please see attached image and if the WWII barrel mfgr ID codes are already posted, point
me to the link so I don't waste people's time.

thanks,
Commisar

This is a barrel lot code. Barrels were marked in lots in case of future failure issues, so they could be tracked and replaced at the depots if need be. The manufacturer is Waffenwerke Brünn, same as the rifle.
