Description:
SOLD.......I HAVE A GN BAYONET FOR SALE
Argentine MAUSER D.G.F.M. F.M.A.P. "Gendarmeria Nacional" in Original correct military configuration; only 405-505 made from 1949 to 1959. G.N. on the receiver ring. They were manufactured in Santa Fe Argentina with German machinery. I am not sure how many where imported to USA out of the 400-500. 7.65 x 53mm Argentine.

Special note to the collector: Although Collin Webster's books is the finest and very best available source of knowledge on Argentine Mausers; the book is not complete nor ALL CORRECT; many errors, mistakes and omissions can be found. There is conflicting information on the section of the 1909/47 "GN" carbines and Bayonets also; calling 1st and second Variants on carbines,1st and 2nd model on the bayonets (that would correspond to the carbines. Incorrect information also mentioning the range of the SN on carbines and bayos again. I don't agree with Webster description of the "Gendarmeria Nacional" on the SIDE of the receiver as I have never see one anywhere. I do own a 1909 Carbine with GN on the receiver ring/rack-inventory number under GN (same as the bayonets "GN and the sn) like the one for sale; and the other variation having the Argentine Crest on the receiver ring and "Gendarmeria Nacional" under the Crest (all this have the Prefix letter "A" on the Carbines and the Bayonets). Either way if you want to call it 1st or 2nd variant, still very scarce 400-500 made.

Condition: Overall very good condition. This is ALL ORIGINAL, CORRECTMILITARY CONFIGURTON. I see NO rust NO pitting anywhere. ALL matching numbers on the side of the receiver, bolt and trigger guard floor plate; the woodstock is unnumbered.  The metal is in excellent shape, very clean, what looks to me original bluing is dark rich; the magazine floor plate-trigger guard, barrel band the nose cap seem to have a flat dark finish. Medal finish with minimal scratches, handling marks, loss of finish. Buttplate very clean,  in great shape, in  the  white as it should be with light aging spots, marks, scratches.  Rear sight looks good original blue with white background. Bolt and receiver very clean, bright on the white as it should be in very fine condition with some toning patina mix with very few aging spots. BOLT FACE clean; I see NO pitting, NO ring around firing pin hole, like it has not been shoot much! Nice crisp, deep, GN, 00.682 (internal rack number NOT a SN) on the front of the receiver ring and DGFM FMAP markings on the side of the receiver. Wood stock is very dark brown walnut with no repairs seen. Stock has bruises, small dents, scratches, handling marks. There is a very narrow shallow hairline crack on the bottom rear of trigger guard; there is a very small chip on the left and a very small gap on the top between the wood and the buttplate.  The handguard has the same matching wood tone and grain in very good shape; with handling marks, and a tiny chip on the left corner by the receiver ring. The BORE is very good with nice lands and groves. There is a tiny, very discreet  import mark on the right  rear of the receiver by the wood line. Action is mechanically fine, nice and tight.

Overall what I consider a very nice example of a very rare 1909/47 GN Cavalry Carbine  Argentine variant (400-500 made); very hard to find that would make a great addition to your ADVANCE collection!!
