I picked this one up recently at auction. Unfortunately a bolt mismatch and the finish is pretty worn, but the bolt is absolutely mint! The Germans numbered the trigger guard, floorplate and ejector box. The bands aren't numbered. They left the sling swivels intact and replaced the unit disk with a takedown disk in the stock which looks to be marked S14. Is S14 a manufacturer or just inspection numbers? They aren't waffenamts? They have some nice Weimar eagles so I assume it was whatever the armorer had in his spare parts.
 
The disc is marked Su4, for inspection by HZa Spandau. The depot made the part as a spare, but that doesn't necessarily mean Spandau did the install. Spandau made spare parts were provided to lots of other depots.

Thank you! That makes sense. There are no depot or Hza markings on the stock.

I think I read that the Eagle over 6 on the ejector box screw is Simson?
 
bolt was here blued, otherway the configuration of sling remained as it was by CS Vz.24. Bolt was mixed probably in german unit.
