The serial number 7489 is also clearly stamped on the bolt carrier. The scope body is marked K 43, 83410, and ddx triangle. One detachable 10-round box magazine is included, marked gcb, K43, and WaA892 beneath a Nazi eagle proof. Additional eagle proof marks are visible on the right side of the buttstock. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The blued finish shows significant service wear, thinning, and oxidation with areas of light pitting on the receiver, barrel, and magazine. The action appears to function correctly, though we have not function-tested this firearm. The laminated wood stock shows typical handling marks, dings, and bruises consistent with service use, while the through-bolt and metal furniture remain secure. The scope optics appear clear with an intact reticle.
