Could anyone who own a tgf 1950, give me some information on it, preferbly with some pictures.
I own one, but it’s not in an original stock, so I’m looking for pointers on original parts and info.
Thank you!
 
They were made in the early 50ies by Brno, ordered by the Czech government. They show Czech / Brno acceptance stamps and other markings. The original finish was a very good and nice blackish blueing. The stock was walnut, without takedown disc in the butt, some kind of kriegsmodell configuration. The rings were stamped; the lower ring was unique to this model. The trigger guard was a combination of milled and stamped and as well unique to this model. The serial ranges from 00001 to 20000; I've never seen a serial bigger than 20000.
Many went to East Germany and/or Iraq. Those are often marked accordingly.
