sorry, 906f on the RC S/42G
byf 44
byf 44, SN 20895 h, all matching including stock and hand guard, has original sling and cleaning rod, in great condition. Clear WaA135 stamp on the right side of the stock near the butt plate. Still has 85-90% of original bluing. Vet bring-back rifle, no import or RC marks.

Hello to all.
I saw today a k98 byf 44 (reported on the top of the receiver. There is also a WaffenAmt, no other id's are reported). The s/n W6260 is reported on the RIGHT side of the receiver. On its left side only 2 WaffenAmt are reported . Unfortunately I wasn' t allowed to take pictures. Its bolt reports a different s/n and the front milled band too. The rear band is stamped. The floorplate and the trigger guard are milled and blocked with 2 groups of two screws. A zf41/1 scope is installed on the proper rail.
Does someone have any idea about what is it?
Is it a platypus?
Thanks in advance.
