Normally the scope and mounts are considered as one item , and in the outward appearance , all ZF41 scopes and mounts are guite similair .
A closer examination of the scopes reveals many variations in the markings , rain schields and the focusing rings  .
All mounts have the designation etched on the rear mount arm as schown .
By observation (thanks to J.P Hayon - vintagescope to mention me this)
There is a difference between the early and late mounts markings .
Early mount only with WaA 214 = Very early mount for K98/ZF41 duv41 (flat mount )
Early mount with WaA 214 above duv = ar rifles / 41-42-43 .
Late war mount = byf 43 and 44
On the inside of the mount you find also markings , but is not always the same marking .
Early mounts have on each leg ( not always )a marking .
Late mounts have one marking.
No explanation found at this moment what these marks means .
This markings has been found on original mounts
Early mounts : cxn (flat rollers) : j - 6
bmj (flat rollers) : d - 4
jve : I - 5
ddv : I - 9
Late mounts : cxn : i , v , h , m
busch : h

Photos showing numbers on three of the four flats on the scope rings .
This is not the weapon snr .
No explanation found at this moment what these numbers means .
On the upper part stand engraved nrs , these is the first two nrs of the gun snr
 
Exceptions .
There are always exceptions , such as these type 1.
No gun nr on the mount , but three of the four flats on the scope rings have numbers.
