Rating Definition:

Excellent. The rifle retains 97% original blue finish showing some moderate wear from cycling the action and some minor thinning overall. There is an area of minor pitting on the barrel. The stock and handguard are both excellent with a few deep gouges and a few very scattered minor handling marks. This rifle has matching numbers and is mechanically excellent. An excellent original Walther G43 rifle!
