Indeed. “Preduzece 44” actually denotes the same former government arsenal, then state owned Yugoslavian rifle factory, and now Serbian enterprise that produces and sells Mauser rifles and actions all over the world under the Zastava name.

The scrubbed and refurbished German 98’s may still have Waffenamt marks on less-visible locations.
