Description
German G43 "ac43", 8mm cal. semi-auto military rifle. Serial #822, mfg. 1943 in Nazi Germany by Carl Walther A.G. Excellent condition! Wow! Here's one of the rarest and nicest G43's we have ever offered! One of the FIRST 1000 G43's to be produced! Beautiful in all ways, it has a bright shiny bore and an excellent stock - consignor reports a slight duffel cut on the end of the buttstock (see photos). Slight freckling on the forearm cap and barrel which is usual. Nazi proof marks on barrel, receiver, bolt and triggerguard. Milled bolt housing. K43 "aye" marked magazine. Marked on panel: "G43 822 ac43" with a Nazi acceptance stamp and Nazi "eagle" symbol. Works wonderfully! Dark brown bakelite handguard appears to be a post-war replacement. 23" barrel is threaded with a protector. Adjustable rear sights. Steel cleaning rod. Leather sling in excellent condition. The BEST "Hitler's Garand" we have ever had the pleasure of presenting to you! MUCH Nazi history here. A great one and a superb investment! C&R OK. Gunrunner West item.
