DOU45 NLB - 2025 Closet Find

That's a pretty sweet rifle, wish there were more of these closet finds floating around. Congrats on a crisp semi Kriegsmodell!
 
nice find.. looks like it took a tumble. More than likely thrown into a huge pile at the end of the war. The test proof on the bolt ball rear is a Czech thing. More than likely an e'63 bolt.
Czech stock disc screws modified with slot. All around correct. Full of grease probably never fired.

You hit the nail on the head! I went to look at the bore when I popped the bolt out....Just full of grease from the chamber to about 3 inches into the barrel. The bore is pristine.

And yes! The bolt is marked E/63 on the bottom.
