Aaaah, the rifle my great-grandfather more than likely used during World War 2 (known over here as the "18-day campaign", because the Belgian army held out from may 10th until may 28th 1940), and the rifle in it's original inception that my great-grandfathers uncle used during World War 1 (until he fell on the batllefield of Ypres in 1914). I appreciate the video very much :) (although, it's "fusil" and not "fucile")
Ammo for 7.65 is very easy to make from .30-06, and .312-.313 bullets are made by Sierra, Hornady & Speer. Cast bullet molds are also easily available. Any competent Handloader can make his own ammo.
If anyone here owns one of these carbines look for an LK5 or LK3 marking on the stock. It's not a hundred percent certain what this marking desonate but the current theory is it belongs to the Luftgau Kommando. This marking has been found on a number of French captured weapons that were reworked in the Depots and marked by the Germans. As well as many Belgium carbines and from other nations that the Germans captured weapons from.
I've been tempted to pick one of these up. I've been refurbishing a M1935 GI bring back that had been duffel cut, and was missing lots of the hardware, and the fore stock. It looks like the loops for the stacking swivel on the bayonet lug are not there on yours. Were they ground off, or were they ever there in the first place?
The Mle 1935 were made from German Gew98s that the Belgians either captured or received in reparations, except for some made by FN brand new in early 1940. I have one made by MAE and I spent a lot to get one matching, unsanded, with it's original sling and cleaning rod. Btw, if you want that book signed by the Author, you can buy it from the publisher, wetdog publications, for $5 more.
I like the milsurp bolt action rifles , have a few from the WWI & WWII time frame , mostly Italian , Russian , British , German, plus a couple of the Spanish rifles . I still need a French WWI rifle & the US rifles . I like the history of the countries development of these rifles
A place here were i live has one for 300 buuttt its missing that handgaurd and both barrel bands and finding that would be like finding a needle in the ocean
Anyway man noice video has been a long time you have posted a video noice seeing you again on YT i thought you stoped making 😂😂😂 What ever im not tired of asking so BAYONET VIDEO PLZ hope you a great day
I have a danzig 1913 but also says 1826a on the barrell. My great grandfather took it home from WW2 and sporterized it unfortunately. Besides the kar 98k bolt everything down to the screws are the same serial number for the kar 98a. I cant find out what the "1826" means
Hello I just was wondering in the video does this rifle accept the same ammo as the 1891 Argentine? And the 1889 Belgian rifle? 7.65x53? Or is it 7.65x54? I’ve been reading the debate between the two cartridges and how there is a slight difference some ppl say there isn’t and some say there is could you help clear that up at all? Thank you
Great content. Very interesting what you said a bout the French campaign. It was no pushover by any means and the casualties were heavy on both sides. The individual French soldier fought bravely but was let down by there high command and the obviously superior tactics of the Germans
Is any of the rear end of the bolt components compatible with the 1935 rifle? Obviously looking back, a lot of conversion work of any nation seems somewhat silly in retrospect in relation to the cost of making the new rifles, not to mention you could still have the original in reserve stock, albeit in an outdated configuration as well as the new rifle. But it's unfair to criticize too much because hindsight is 20/20. There isn't much to go wrong in the front of the bolt, but quite a lot in the rear with the firing pin as well as all the other small parts.
It was definitely a bit cheaper and fast to convert existing rifles to the new pattern. Milling out a new reciever and bolt components isnt cheap or time efficient. For mausers its pretty easy to just pull the barrel and screw in a new one in a new caliber. Little stock work with some updated bands ect and boom rifle serves a new purpose.
@@orcabolgsweetie2430 For some reason youtube formating deleted most of my post, of course. The problem is we don't really know what the actual cost to do this in relation the new manufacture is. What they did wasn't just a little bit of work, welding both extensions on the bolt body and receiver then replacing the entirety of the rear bolt assembly, for what real gain? If they just did barrel, stocks and the associated things like barrel bands, I think that's great, but given they were also going to keep the old carbines in inventory, they would still have to deal with the old model bolt components, so I don't really see from a monetary aspect why they would do all that work above the basics. For training so they don't have two different ways to disassemble a bolt, or operated it, perhaps. it just reminds me of some of the french experiments in converting the Lebel, where they spend two thirds the cost of a new rifle to make something subpar compared to the newer rifles. Where for a third more, they'd have both a new rifle, and a old while a outdated, far from ideal rifle, still better than nothing.
I have a K98 and i have the 5 round stripper clips for it as well however the clips don't seem to fit in the rifle for some reason. It seems like they're too wide and won't even make it halfway. Anyone have any idea on why this is?
@@MilsurpWorld Was thinking that as well, I got 6 of them with 8mm Mauser ammo assuming it would work but I'll have to try to find different ones or something.
That update on 89/36 must have cost a ton. Wonder why ditch money on these while they had FN turning new Mausers, oh... Gov Arsenal employment vs private companys new product with their rights to it. 😁

I was lucky enough to come across an MAE example in over 30 years of milsurp trading. A rare, high quality piece of history. Thanks for this.
YOUR BACK, HOLY SHIT I NEED TO GET MY LONG AWAITED FIX OF MILSURP WORLD.
For such a small country we are, 18 days is not bad
There are dozens of us! DOZENS!
Ammo for 7.65 is very easy to make from .30-06, and
.312-.313 bullets are made by Sierra, Hornady & Speer.
Cast bullet molds are also easily available.
Any competent Handloader can make his own ammo.
I was thinking maybe you could do a video on how you keep your guns from rusting and keep up such a large collection.
That's not a bad idea.
@@MilsurpWorld how many you got now danny
@@orcabolgsweetie2430 More than a few, less than a lot.
I counted the other day. I'm at 34 milsurp rifles. I have a problem
@@orcabolgsweetie2430 It's just the start, my friend.
I was looking at this or a danish krag. I choose the krag however this is my next piece I want.

Mine is LK3 i posted it on the k98k forum

Interesting. Thanks for posting. I bet if they had up to date rifles it wouldn't have been a cake walk for Germans.
Very interesting video and thank you.

Hey do you happen to have the pics of the 89/36 in German service, ive seen like 2 Luftwaffe pics
i have one i got recently! unfortionily mine does not have a stock or trigger gaurd.
Great vid, learned a lot
A place here were i live has one for 300 buuttt its missing that handgaurd and both barrel bands and finding that would be like finding a needle in the ocean
Try Numrich Arms www.gunpartscorp.com/
So, if these rifles were designed and built for the round nose 7.65X53 round, are they compatible with spitzer projectiles
Anyway man noice video has been a long time you have posted a video noice seeing you again on YT i thought you stoped making 😂😂😂
What ever im not tired of asking so
BAYONET VIDEO PLZ
hope you a great day
Don’t speak French either, but good, informative video. Nice rifle. Thanks!
Hey I was wondering if you have any yugo m24/47s and if you could do a video on their history?
I have a danzig 1913 but also says 1826a on the barrell. My great grandfather took it home from WW2 and sporterized it unfortunately. Besides the kar 98k bolt everything down to the screws are the same serial number for the kar 98a. I cant find out what the "1826" means
Serial number?

It's the same ammo
just thought i'd get that out there but rifle is written as "fusil" in french. great video apart from that
So , what is the difference between m1935 and m1889/36 ??
Hon hon hon hon one milsurpy boi
Great content.

It was no pushover by any means and the casualties were heavy on both sides.
The individual French soldier fought
bravely but was let down by there high command and the obviously superior tactics of the Germans
*ahem* Cope
>people want a gun in a caliber that's easy to get
*laughs in 2021* joke's on you no caliber is easy to get now
:(
Can the Belgian Mauser 1935 and 1889/36 accept the S84/98 bayonets?
Interesting video. Enjoy your content
I got my great grandfathers two rifles I have been looking for what they are and just found out it’s a model 35 but the bolt is welded shut😞
Where is the weld located
इस राईफल की गोली कितने मिटर पर जाती है जरूर बताओ मुझे
Aww not first :(

Stripper clip is for a different rifle it sounds like.
@@MilsurpWorld Was thinking that as well, I got 6 of them with 8mm Mauser ammo assuming it would work but I'll have to try to find different ones or something.
Man, I would love to drill and tap it for a big Hubble type scope, heat and bend the bolt down and then slap it in a Boyd's stock! Fudd Bubba time!
Absolutely
man...looks that you gained a lot weight these two years...
15th!
Actually first. Awesome video man
😢 Darn it!
Fusil not Fucile that's French for rifle ;)

Around the 2 minute mark you mistakenly refer to it as an 1898 action when it's an 1889
Second First!
7th! haha like the video
