Late World War II Nazi Walther "ac44" Code K43 Manufactured Semi-Automatic Sniper Rifle with Matching ZF4 Sniper Scope Mount and Accessories

This is a example of a mid WWII Nazi K43 semi-automatic rifle as manufactured by the Walther factory that has been fitted with a ZF4 sniper scope and mount. It has the rough cast type receiver marked on the left side "Eagle/359/K43/ac44" next to the serial number "8122". It also has the rough cast bolt cover with the hollow cocking knob on the left side with hold open latch on the right side. It has the late stamped action cover with sliding dust cover. It is fitted with a laminated stock and handguard, with a sheet metal cupped buttplate on the end of the stock. The stock has a single very faint Waffenamt proof on the left side and underside of the butt. The rifle has been fitted with a WWII, scope mount, with the square ends, that has a single "Eagle/359" Waffenamt proof on the side with a blue "fest" and "lose" marked locking lever. The mount is fitted with a mid-war ZF4 marked scope that is marked "Gw ZF4/64215/K43/ddx". The scope is complete with the leather and wooden plug lens caps and rubber eye shield. The rifle is complete with one magazine marked "avx/K43" on the left side. Included with this rifle is a blue cleaning rod, sheet metal front sight cover, rubber muzzle cover, a brown cross-hatched leather sling and a field manual and spare firing pin inside the butt-trap compartment.

ConditionExcellent. 90% of the phosphate finish overall with edge and high spot wear with thinning on the action cover. The stock and handguard are both very fine as they were lightly cleaned at some time, but not sanded and have now taken on an aged look. The handguard has a some heavier pressured marks/gouges on each side. The scope and mount retain 90% of the finish with moderately clear optics. The accessories are all in fine condition.
