This is an excellent example of a WWII German G41 rifle manufactured by Berlin-Lubecker. These rifles were manufactured in late 1942 to early 1943. This entire series of rifles were used only for a limited time before all production switched to the G/K43 series of rifles. This rifle has the early type 1 all machined receiver that is marked on the left side: "G41 duv 43/eagle/214" followed by the serial number. It is fitted with all the correct early all machined components, including the bolt, bolt carrier, gas cone, early action cover as well as most of the internal parts. The visible serial number on the various parts are all matching. It is fitted with a laminated stock with a smooth cupped sheet metal buttplate, with double Waffenamt "eagle/214" proofs on the right side of the buttstock and a single proof in the pistol grip area. The rifle is equipped with the correct dark red/brown phenolic resin (plastic) handguard manufactured in 1941/42 time frame. The stock is number "5793/h" on the underside. It has the standard military sights with the blade front sight and tangent rear sight graduated from 1-12 (100-1200 meters). It is complete with an unmarked WWII leather sling, front sight cover, and cleaning rod.

Excellent with 90% plus of the original blued finish overall, blue loss and thinning on the edges and high spots overall, and blue loss on the exposed front area of the barrel and gas cone. The stock and handguard are both in very fine condition with nice clear markings on the sides, showing light handling marks, scratches and pressure dents on the sides. The initials "F.S." are carved into the underside of stock above the serial number. A scarce and desirable early variation of the G41 semi-automatic rifle.
