S28 to Karab98b Evolution - new insights

I have not seen the reference to "Mod.1928" before so that's completely new.
The exporter is located in Athens but I wonder if that was a cover to keep this delivery under the radar so to speak.

Again, another data point in this puzzle.
 
Bruce, indeed interesting. Does the total of 15.000 rifles from this contract correspond to the serials of S28 rifles?

The text
"fob. Versch.Hafen
seem. verpackt,
10% f. Broumis,
5% f. Bergmann, Berlin"

most possibly means
"free on board Verschiffung Hafen
seemäßig verpackt,
10% (Provision) für Broumis,
5% (Provision) für Bergmann, Berlin"

or translated
"free on board shipment harbour
seaworth packing,
10% (provision) for Broumis,
5% (provision) for Bergmann, Berlin"

Jon, that document is from Mauser, right? Wasn't the earlier believe that S28 rifles come from Simson?
