1881 Erfurt M71

[cj556]

I picked this 1881 Erfurt 71 off broker recently. All matching with WW1 black painted trigger guard. No bolt head or extractor present as seems typical for WW1 bring back 71 and 88s. No unit markings on buttplate either.

Second batch of photos. Barrel finish is browned perhaps? Appears so under the woodline.

That’s awesome! I know youve been looking for one for decades! Now me on the other hand, I just got a very special Gew rifle that I think you’ll be excited to see.
