- Wayne and Darla Noble's award winning display at OGCA focused on the GEWEHR 33/40, the elusive mountain carbine of the #wwii German Gebirgsjäger. Gebirgsjäger (German pronunciation: [ɡəˈbɪʁksˌjɛːɡɐ]) are the light infantry part of the alpine or mountain troops (Gebirgstruppe) of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The word Jäger (meaning "hunter" or "huntsman") is a characteristic term used for light infantry in German speaking countries. Their display has phenomenal #rifles that we will cover here in detail and provide a history lesson on the WWII German mountain troops!

Very interesting collection of rifles and memorabilia!
Horrido! Excellent presentation and collection of G33/40's. I've been collecting Gebirgsjäger militaria for 40+ years. An interesting former Czech rifle pressed into German service. I'm not a big weapon collector, but I do have a nice G33/40, as well as a 98k. From most of my research and wartime photographic evidence, it seems that the 4. Gebirgsdivision was the major recipient of the G33/40 during the war.
Gents, the 33/40 & K98s rifles did not have bayonets numbered to match (but the Port. contracted 98s did have matched bayos).
The “dot” bayonets I believe were for the G.24(t), not the 33/40.
Since I don't think he mentioned this in the video, these were made in Czechoslovakia after the German annexation by CZUB, which today is part of the Colt CZ Group.
Good job! Wayne And Len And Wayne I don't think you look like Sam kennison And don't forget the camera boy Alex Great information
Thanks for the video, very informative. Wayne could be Sam Kinison's long lost twin!
have the czech Vz.33 rifles ever been put into german service at all? do you know of any Vz.33s with G.33/40 stocks put on them?
You Can Use A K98 Bolt in a G33-40?
Do you have a patreon or another way to funnel funds towards this great content?
Very tough group of men
Why protective metal plate on the left side of the buttstock and not also on the right side ?
The protective metal plate on the buttstock is to protect the wood from the metal cleats on the sides of the Gebirgsjäger mountain boots when standing at attention with the G33/40 on the right side of the Jäger.
They're a small ring diameter like a 96 Mauser with the overall length of a 98 action. So a Kar 98 stock wouldn't work on the G 33/40.
Turns out that I have one of em but the previous owner drilled it for a scope
Bergheil 👌🏻🇩🇪💘
Objection Your Honor, he's clearly leading the witness, also clearly badgering the witness, yes badgering is a legal term Your Honor, what do you mean objection overruled. no I will not sit down...
Funny how Americans can pronounce Jägermeister but not gebirgsjäger
