This is a fine example of an prewar WWII German 22 caliber single shot training rifle. These rifles were a standard prewar training rifle that was pressed into service by Germany during the prewar days to provide a low cost training rifle to all military forces. They were specifically intended to duplicate the feel, weight and functioning of the standard K98 rifle. The top of the receiver ring is marked with the stylized "G" logo over "GUSTLOFF-WERKE / Waffenwerk-Suhl" with an "eagle / N" proof mark on the left side. The right rear side of the receiver is marked " K.K. Wehrsportgewehr". The left rear side of the barrel is marked "KAL 22 LANGE FUR BUCHSEN", followed by the serial number and the "eagle/N" proof mark. It has the military style inverted "V" front sight and tangent rear sight, graduated from 25-200 feet. The stock is European walnut with two barrel bands, hand guard, bayonet lug, sling swivels, and steel butt plate. The left rear of the stock is stamped with "Sad. NSDAP" in a circle. It is complete with an original WWII brown leather sling and cleaning rod.
