The German Wehrmacht was always hungry for more rifles during World War Two, and adopted substitute designs made in friendly (or subservient) countries when possible. Almost all of these were minor variations on the Mauser 98 system, but the Hungarian G98/40 was an exception. This was a Mannlicher system, with zero parts interchangeability with the K98k. Specifically, the G98/40 was the result of the FEG factory taking their 35M Hungarian standard service rifle (chambered for 8x56R) and adapting it to use the German 8x57mm cartridge, along with German stripper clips, slings, and bayonets. Production began in 1941 and continued into 1944 with a total of about 148,400 manufactured in total.

At Forgotten Weapons I think the most interesting guns out there are the most obscure ones. I try to search out experimental and prototype weapons and show you how they work, in addition to more conventional guns that you may not have heard of before. You’re much more likely to find a video on the Cei Rigotti or Webley-Fosbery here than an AR or Glock. So, do you want to learn about something new today? Then stick around!
