SOLD - 1945 Walther K43 Rifle - AC 45

Description

4/11/23 - This is a nice example of an AC 45 K43 originally issued to the Nazi military in 1945. There is a "Russian Capture X" on the receiver and what looks like an East German "Sunburst" marking on the receiver as well. So we assume this was captured by the Russians and ended up at an East German police arsenal. The gun is all matching, but many of the parts have been re-numbered and/or electro-pencil numbered. Even the magazine has electro-pencil numbering to match the gun. The entire gun has an arsenal re-applied finish. There is very little wear, just some tiny handling marks here and there. Nice wood stock, but there is a series of tiny dings on the left side of the butt stock. Phenolic resin handguard painted to look like wood. Comes with one magazine and a nice leather sling. The bore has great rifling, but there is light oxidation and pin-pricking in the grooves.
