    I was once told that my early minty '39 in walnut, wasn't really tough to find...lol. I guess things have changed!

    "Woodwork" Dou 43 "i" Block - Matching Example

    This sentiment is even more true of leather slings. So many times, folks want to protect/preserve their leather slings. "protect" from what? The leather is now indoors w/o rain or weather.... and you want to add some goop to P&P leather that has survived 80 yrs. Just dumb, IMO. Meanwhile...

    "Woodwork" Dou 43 "i" Block - Matching Example

    Perfect gun, untouched. Once cleaned of just simple air rust, it no longer is “untouched”, imo. I would leave as is.

    ar 43 mauser k98 with excessive (abnormal) recoil

    I’m a bit puzzled. Same ammunition, in two rifles of the same mass will have identical recoil force. Can’t fight physics. As was mentioned, a slightly lighter walnut stocked gun will have a slightly greater backwards (recoil) force.

    Another sniper…

    My odd thought here is, if the gun is real why then hang a repop sling?

    Nothing wrong with paying well for one you really want. The reality, prices of good stuff rarely backs up. I think many here saw/ watched this one on GB and love the rifle... For the record at ~$4K with taxes etc... https://www.gunbroker.com/item/983678398

    Stock maintenance

    The channel seems untreated/ raw... the exterior appears normal for a used & period treated w/ oxidation. I would leave as is

    Stock maintenance

    I think it best to show us pics of the starting point. Show the channel and wood's exterior. The Germans did (sometimes) seal the action to the wood => sealing??

    Vetting of a 1940 G33/40

    Agreed, a matched bolt is a ++ on these. The missing disks are a bummer though. Here's an early 945, just FYI... It also had an minor issue (post war sling & swivels added) but was very happy to add early 945

    GL... period correct will require an unnumbered stock w/ chatter, with E/H in the wood. Here are some examples that surround your SN ==> late dot 1944

    Mauser DSM trainer question

    Just repeating what's quoted .... great stocks (basically walnut & elm), and sometimes property/ provenance marks (ie., DRP, SS, SA, HJ). Ten years ago I was quietly promoting trainers as under appreciated/ valued as there's lots to love.
