Description:

A WWII Nazi K43 semi-automatic rifle as manufactured by the Walther factory that has been fitted with a ZF4 sniper scope and mount. The cast receiver marked on the left "Eagle/359/K43/ac44" next to the serial number. Rough cast bolt cover with the hollow cocking knob with no hold open latch and a stamped action cover. Laminated stock and handguard, with a sheet metal cupped buttplate. The stock has a single very faint Waffenamt proof on the left side and underside of the butt. The rifle has a WWII scope mount with round ends with a "Eagle/359" Waffenamt proof on the side and a standard ZF4 scope marked "Gw ZF4/K43/dow/38505". The scope has reproduction lens caps (leather and wooden plug), rubber eye cup, and metal rain shield. With one "gcb/K43" marked magazine, blue cleaning rod, sheet metal front sight cover, rubber muzzle cover, a brown cross-hatched leather sling and a field manual in the butt-trap compartment.

Rating Definition:

Excellent overall with 98% of a gray phosphate type finish overall with some bare metal showing in areas. The stock and handguard are both in excellent condition with a darker appearance overall and light sanding on the forend and visible proofs. The scope, mount and accessories retain 98% of a gray/blue finish overall and the scope is fine.
