Walther K43 AC44 stacked

[Jake0409]

I’m looking at this Walther K43 Stacked AC44. I know very little about them but it is the German Rifle I’ve wanted forever. The stock isn’t original to the gun and there are markings on the underside of the barrel stamped “OGYB4” that look a lot more crisp than other OGY markings I’ve been able to find. Any information anyone can give me would be awesome.

Looks like a nice honest example, while the non-matching stock will take away some value, it’s a nice original stock. How much are they asking?

Very nice looking rifle. Very nice! Looks like a BLM stock from the serial but I couldn't make out the acceptance at the wrist. Only notable discrepancy I see is the stock mismatch. Not sure about that sight hood either but that's sure no deal breaker and the included butt stock spare parts easily offset that. I'd snag it if priced right.

Acceptance mark on the side is 214, so BLM

Sure enough. I see it now.

I’m able to get it for $1500 which I know is a no brainer.

$1500 was a great deal on that. Congrats!

Jesus, yeah, you're stealing that. The last G/K I bought for ~$1500 ($1300 iirc, but ballpark close enough) was a bolt and bolt carrier mismatch gun in a repro stock. . . in 2009.

Stellar deal for a really nice rifle.

It’s a rifle that’s in with both K.43 and G.43 marked rifles by serial number.

Stacked, it sounds like lots of pancakes or burgers.
When was that term minted and by who?
See RIA uses it.

They could have just called it over or under for the ac and 44. Lol

Is that another marketing term like Black Widow?

I usually just called it a 2 line

Nice rifle, you intend to shoot with?

Nice rifle, you intend to shoot with?

maybe one day. I know I’ll need to order some modern parts to shoot it safely. For now it will be on display next to my other WWII rifles.

Yeah would be fun to shoot but up to you. An Apfeltor kit is a good idea I would think.
