Description:

Produced by the Walther factory under the wartime code of "ac", this is a nice example of a late-war production K43 Sniper rifle. The rifle is equipped with a raised ramp front sight and tangent rear sight graduated to 1200 meters. The receiver is marked "K43", with a rough cast matching numbered bolt carrier with hollow cocking knob, sans hold-open catch. Also fitted to the receiver is a "ddx" code ZF-4 scope, with a set of leather lens caps, and a "610" marked base. Fitted with a laminated pistol grip stock and a brown leather sling.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, with 85% plus phosphate/blue finish, showing some light wear and handling marks, and a mixed color on the matte components. The stock is fine as revarnished, with some dents and scuffs, and the sling is rough and torn. The otherwise excellent original scope and mount show mild spotting and wear, with slightly hazy optics. Mechanically excellent.
