I pulled the stock of my 'new-to-me' Mannlicher with the hope of dating the gun. (I was surprised to find that a comprehensive code of serial numbers and dates did not exist for the commercial sporters, but hoped I'd find an internal date on the gun.) I knew the gun was post-1912 based on the proofs. The name on the scope (Emil Kerner & Sohn) provided another clue as the '& Sohne' nomenclature first shows up in the mid-1920s.

This is standard numbering for Mannlicher. But collectors of German sniper rifles have reassembled most of the major model transitions and serial number. STEYR MANNLICHER LUXUS Model M. Comes from the hammer forging process that Steyr is famous for. The model M action is still used on.
Steyr daimler puch mannlicher schoenauer model 61 mca.243 win bolt action rifle with scope. Serial number '25XXX'. 22' barrel with rear leaf folding sight and front blade on ramp. Very little used with mint bore. 'stoeger/Austria' stamp and 'Steyr' on floorplate of removable box magazine. As you can imagine, he appreciated a good weapon. In addition to the Mannlicher, he passed down a Remington Model 51.380, serial number 13597 which indicates it was made in 1918 or 19, I believe. I also have his Winchester Model 62.22, serial number 19697. Serial number look up on it indicates it was made in 1935.

The serial number on the gun is 9857 and the serial number on the scope is 6581. (This is an original M-S in 6.5x54 with the original Zeiss Zeilvier 4x scope in claw mounts. ) Once I got the gun apart I did not find the date code (or at least the date code in the form I expected to find it.) Stamped in two spots on the underside of the action were the numbers '14037*.19.'
I am not sure how to interpret that code. Anyone have any insight?

Based on the serial number and location of the markings on the scope it was made in 1923 or early 1924, so was added by Kerner a few years after the rifle was made. Zeiss production records were destroyed during the war, but collectors of German sniper rifles have reassembled most of the major model transitions and serial number sequences. Beautiful little rifle, by the way. I may have a sling or two that would be appropriate for it; I'll take a look in my gun room to see what I have available.
