This is an example of a G41 rifle produced by the Berlin-Lubecker company that used the "Bang Gas-Trap" system which employed a barrel mounted "Gas Trap" muzzle cone to trap hot gas that was bleed-off when the round was fired and which cycled the action. These rifles were very short lived and they saw extensive use on the Eastern Front. Consequently, their survival rate is very low in any condition. The left side of the receiver is marked "G 41 duv 43" followed by the serial number and an "eagle/214" proof. The receiver has the machined bolt and bolt carrier with the early machined action cover. The trigger guard and box magazine are the correct stamped wartime versions. The stock is the correct wartime laminated model that is marked on the right side with a double "Eagle 214 Waffenamt" proof and has a black phenolic resin (plastic) handguard. Matching numbers on the front sight, muzzle cone, receiver, action cover, bolt carrier, trigger guard, magazine, and stock. Complete with leather sling.

Very fine. The rifle retains 70% faded original blue finish with the balance a smooth gray patina. There is some minor spotting on the trigger guard. The handguard is very fine with some minor dings and scratches with a long very shallow gash on the right side. There are a couple minor cracks on the buttstock (left side), otherwise the stock is fine with some minor dings and scratches and a couple gouges. Mechanically excellent.
