Blade front and tangent rear sights, with the left side of the receiver marked "K43" and "ac/45", "eagle/359" Waffenamt proofs on a number of components and matching numbers on the bolt carrier. The receiver is the rough cast version with minimal machining with dual bolt guides. It also has the late rough cast bolt carrier with the reinforcing web on the front end and the hollow cocking knob on the left side. It also has the late stamped action cover with blued sliding dust cover. The stock and handguard are the correct late war laminated versions with stamped trigger guard, Waffenamt stamp on the pistol grip and a cupped buttplate with trapdoor. With an "awj" marked blue steel K43 magazine.

Excellent. The barrel, sights and dust cover show 95% original blue, and the rest shows 98% plus original gray phosphate overall with areas of brown patina, mild spotting and scattered handling marks. The receiver and bolt carrier show a proper rough appearance with the "k" in the "k43" marking partially disrupted by a rough casting flaw. Some dings and scuffs are present on the stock along with a few light chips. Mechanically excellent. Missing front sight cover and rod. The cupped buttplate is covered with black paint.
