Product Description
This is a Persian (Iranian) Model 98/29 Mauser, chambered in 7.92x57mm, with serial number P4835, built by Brno, Czechoslovakia under contract for Iran in the late 1920s-1930s. It features the Lion & Sun crest on the receiver ring, the official Iranian military acceptance symbol, as well as Persian script along the receiver stating "Persian Model 98/29, Brno, Czechoslovakia." The serial numbers and additional markings in Eastern Arabic numerals confirm its production date. The rifle's wood stock is in good condition with minor scratches, and the barrel shows some wear consistent with age, but mechanically it functions smoothly, with the bolt pulling back and locking reliably. Brno-produced Persian Mausers are considered some of the finest Mausers ever made, often exceeding contemporary German K98k rifles in steel quality and craftsmanship. Rifles with intact Persian markings and the Lion & Sun crest are rare and highly collectible, making this an excellent piece for collectors of pre-WWII military rifles or enthusiasts of Persian military history.
