Short distance like a drop short?

As I recall, it's just the bolt handle which differs from the standard K98, in that it's turned down.

I know where there is one of the Yugo made ones and i think they are a bit shorter all i know is that in 7.92 they kick like a mule and the But Plate HURTS!!

Hope these links on the Gebirgsjager in WW2 are helpful:

I have the Brno VZ33 which was the original Czech
built carbine. On its adoption into the Wehrmacht
it was designated the G33/40. Its true that many
parts have a different dimension & geometry than
a M98K. They are a bit noisier, too, but with a
proper snug hold the "kick" is just a shove and
the carbine is a hoot to shoot!
The shorter sight radius, though, reduces accuracy.
One must remember that, while using a full rifle cartridge, the weapon was built to be a carbine.

hi sir ,
do you know witch better ??
mauser k98 or g33\40 ??

Where can someone get a scope mount like that one?

Come on guys. Get your facts straight. There is no such thing as a yugo g33/40, and they are definitely not just a "lighter, shorter" k98. The k98 has a large reciever ring action. The 33/40 is a small ring action. The outside dimensions are visibly different. The 33/40 also has a hollowed out bolt handle, and longitudinal lighttening cuts on either side of the reciever below the stock line. Aside from being shorter, the barrel also has different contours, and a completely different front sight. They were only ever made for 3 years and only at the Brunn factory. As such, they will always be marked DOT and the years '40,'41,'42.

I have a g33/40 and need to find a part for it. can anyone help me?
