Barrel band for a Standard Modell

[Shootin Shack Guns]

Hello, a friend gave me a Standard Modell 98 barreled action that I've been working on. I have everything done except the correct barrel band. Does anyone know if they used that barrel band on other rifles or was the Standard Modell barrel band unique to that rifle. It looks like it has a little hook on the bottom? TIA

Yes, it's similar to the Gew98 front barrel band in that it has a parade hook.

Dave has got a Standard model stock for sale with a duffel cut, DRP marked which is cool.

Are they same length?

The front band did not change, but the rear band changed to the wide version just before SN 50000 or so.
Also the stock that Dave has is a Banner K stock and not a Standard-Modell.

All the SM stocks as originally manufactured at Mauser had no relief cutout for the bent bolt handle as they all had straight bolts.

Does anyone know if the GEW band will work or are the same?

Gew as in Gewehr98?

yes, an upper band for a Gew98 will work on a Standard Modell. The Gew 98 band will have an Imperial acceptance mark and serial number, a correct SM upper band would be blank. Other than markings they are the same
