GERMAN Model G43 semiautomatic rifle # 3764f (8x57mm) mfg. by Berliner-Lübecker-Maschinenfabrik (factory code duv) in 1944. A Very Good condition rifle with some issues. Bolt carrier is mismatched, cleaning rod is missing, but the most serious issue is that some idiot decided long ago to make a "sporting" rifle out of this classic by grinding off the sling swivel on the front band, filling in the rear sling slot with what appears to be a piece of wood, and finally drilling two holes on the bottom of the stock for sling swivels (which I have removed). No other modifications (other than sanding and varnishing the stock) were done, and all of the above can be restored without much effort (I have seen G43 barrel-bands for sale in the past). Bore is excellent and mirror-bright, very bold Nazi markings, completely functional with aye-marked G43 magazine. Includes front sight-hood. Not import marked, I have seen much worse.
