Manufactured by Berlin-Lubecker on a rough forged receiver marked "G 43 duv 44" on the left. Hooded blade front sight and military tangent rear sight graduated from 100-1200 meters. Both the receiver and bolt carrier are forged and machined, with the manual catch on the right side of the carrier. Smooth pistol grip laminated stock with a cupped trapdoor buttplate. Matching serial number marked on the receiver, bolt carrier, bottom of the buttstock, and electro-penciled into the extractor. Right side mounting rail fitted with a ZF4 scope. The left of the scope body is marked "K43/86939/ddx.(green triangle)" in three lines. Unnumbered scope mount base with an "(eagle)/359" proof. Post war replacement magazine marked "MADE IN DENMARK" on the floorplate. Includes a reproduction leather sling on the rifle, and a tan painted "jvb" code metal scope case containing a carrying sling and an original K43 sniper manual.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, retains 95% original blue finish with some light cycling wear and a few areas of light freckling. Replacement magazine retains 90% original black painted finish. Stock is also excellent with defined edges, a few light cracks on either side of the front of the forend, and some light handling marks. Mechanically excellent. Scope and mount are both excellent, with clear optics. Included scope case is fine, and the manual is good with some general age related wear.
