So I was digging around in my decades old selection of parts when I came across a few boxes of HK parts. Most were organized into caliber but I had a decent amount of loose parts.
Turns out those loose parts were form a HK 33, 5.56 roller gun
Barrel appears to be original and is still in the trunnion with a saw cut part of the receiver on the front. Only the HK lettering is left of the side of the magwell, so it was an original receiver at one point.
Barrel is 12.75" long and it does have some proof marks near the chamber end. A "NP" with the N and P joined, A stamped triagnle with a vertical line at the top, and a small Egyptian looking (think hieroglyphics) symbol over the NP.
This looks to be factor assembled, all of the paint looks like hk to me, but I have had issues finding info about a HK 33 variant with a 12.75" barrel. The HK 53 has a 8" or so barrel, but that is not long enough to be this. This uses a std length forearm, but does not have a bayo lug in the triple tree.
Any ideas?
