Hi,
here are a few pics of my 660 from 1939:

Can you post pictures of the stock markings and numbers on the upper barrel band and bayonet lug?

My stock does not have any waa marks, probably isn't original.

Moc hezký kousek . Škoda, že pažba není původní. Super je že puška není znehodnocená novodobou tormentací, nebo jinými raznicemi.

It is possible the stock is original, look inside for a serial number, look at the take down for an acceptance stamp... that the bayonet mug & buttplate match is a good sign. The cross bolt is also e/623, but most of all there are reports of KM unit marked rifles for SDP early on (Nordsee earlier, Ost See later), - in particular a 660/39 O.32400 9000 1st block rifle, which compares well with yours. Typically the unit marked rifles tend to be close in range when found, much like the bayonets, - that your unit marking seems close to this one it is possible it is original, but maybe sanded... (sanded is much preferable to mismatched, metal looks re-blued to me also, but still a rather elusive rifle in this condition)

Very few 660/39 are anywhere near original-matching, it is a very tough rifle to find matching and original.

You're right - stock is original. See photos:

It is rare to find the original stock on a 660/39 (98k), very difficult, at least in so far as 15 years of collecting data suggests. Too bad it is sanded on the exterior, but still quite a find.

G12/34 pictures and bayonet question

Thank you for sharing this information. I have spent the last week researching my dad's G12/34 - I wish I had found this information earlier! Here are pictures of his rifle. I have three bayonets that may fit the G12/34. I don't have a good reference book to confirm. Any thoughts?

Update - I had someone reach out and help identify the bayonets. All could fit the G12/34 but none where the actual bayonet.
