looks like an "assembled" bolt. Bolt body is Mauser O. Very odd would be near unseen on a steyr rifle. All quote matching vk98's have steyr roughly made bolts with ser #. A CZ safety is an non issue on any late war assy. as they were using up everything at that point.

correct Frank.. spot on. (y)

those numbers were added by the Russians after ww2.

this is a m35 shell that was re-worked later and the rough paint was added. Then a nice spray camo was added in the tricolor camo used later in the war.. Nice gift !

thanks. I didn't think to take a pic of the follower. I actually noticed it later.

nice.. the light is playing tricks. the slide looks much darker than the rest.

This happens far too often IMHO... The "hey how'd I do " threads typically don't end well. Its an auction he bid and bid and paid what the market would bear. He wasnt forced or tricked into buying the rifle. Its clearly listed and shows all it needs to show. SS contract all correct and...

Nice display ! Id leave it in the living room blocking the stairs as long as possible !! lol :ROFLMAO: :cool: :ROFLMAO: I've had some nice one's over the years. From ww1-ww2. Right now all I have a is a mint ac40 or 41 Walther SS KM double. I see you have the anodized variant there.

Id say these pistols fall into the same category as the Byf44 L -- Svw45C blocks .. Lots or flip flopping lots of combo's of blued and phosphated parts right to the end.

Here are the rest . Mag is just marked P38 spot welded and ground with the reinforced stamped follower that is phosphated .

Not trying to one up Bruce as that cant be done.. But, its funny how things happen. Been waiting to see this example since Dec. A good friend picked up collection and this was in it. Its being passed to another friend who has been looking for one 15 years. Glad I could help.. I kept something...

the other set posted has the blued slide but the photos are soooo small its hard to tell.. svw45 p38 have flip flopped blued barrels also .

very hard to find example right there !! thanks for sharing

yes thats the correct holster. P35b holsters have their own cut and style and have the wider mag pouch.

great very hard to find rig// P35b holsters are the most common part of the rig/
