    markings for mg 13 ??

    Hello. any one ever seen / have a photo of a german m.g.13 ... WITH the german markings ???

    All I ever see are the m.g.13s from 1938 with the Portuguese markings.
    nothing monumental, just like to know what they looked like.
    Thank you in Advance.

    I recall seeing some SCW Kondor Legion MG13s...but the only marks were serial numbers, I believe. You can see it is an earlier MG13 because the bolt handle is not hollow.

        Biggest difference with the Portugese are the cocking Handler an the dented receiver.

          Here are some pics of mine -
          The right side plate is reproduction so of no value.
          It was nice to get it out, it has been gathering dust.

            Not sure if these are what you are asking for - hope they help.

              Third pic from top is of the Dreyse bolt carrier - I should have positioned it upright - my post's won't allow me to edit and move or insert text. But the waffen stamp (WaA4) is in the white metal towards the right of the picture. It is a very clear stamp impression - badly photographed
              (I need a rear sight if anyone has one in their odds and ends box!!!)

                Sorry gentlemen for my delay in responding back = work related.
                thank you all for the information given , does help.

                I though the mg13 had markings on it stating it was a mg.13 ? read some where .. "markings found on top of receiver, where the commonly seen Portuguese crest is seen on those made". guess not ?
                I'll have to check mine on the waffen amts ,if any on it.

                again , thank you all for you time & information.
                pitfighter , your from AZ. too, (cool / hot).
