Well this has been posted on here before but I thought I'd repost it again but go into a bit more detail. Hope you guys don't mind.

Everything is WR, e/655 or both, as would be expected, except the front sight base which appears to be WaA103?

WaA103 is an early FN inspection used for a short period around 1941. They transitioned to the more commonly encountered WaA140 later in 1941 or early 1942.

Beautiful walnut Luft.:thumbsup:

Ah! Thanks RyanE. I hadn't seen that WaA before.
 
very nice rifle.. Sure dont mind seeing this one again !!! The germans didnt waste anytime getting F/N up to speed making parts. Im quite surprized we never saw a complete rifle come out of f/n similar to the 24t ?? They made 24 variant that was top notch.
 
Nice....

Thats an nice keeper,,sure need one walnut in my collection too:happy0180:
