This is a great piece of living History. Thanks to IraqVeteran8888 videos on this model, I was able to figure out some of the features. God Bless you Sir and your Duty to America. Semper FI and total Respect. I am always amazed how could anyone make a Rifle that is 72 years old to such close tolerances. I never fire her and love to just look at the WW2 piece in wonder.

  • She's a beaut !  I marvel at mine too, the weimar eagles really set yours off !

  • @recycled365 THANK YOU MATE!! CHEERS.

  • Does it have the cleaning rod & front sight hood?

  • It did not come with a cleaning rod and the front sight cover was not available on this early model. It looks like a sight cover could go over the original sight real easy. I could probably get a cleaning rod for ten bucks but I never fire the thing. It sounds like a damn howitzer close up. RH DSD

  • The stock disk is to help disassemble the bolt. You push the firing pin into it to compress the mainspring, which enables you to remove the safety and cocking piece.

  • @DieDeutsch Salutes to him. He would had fought well. 

  • @lover69234 Yeah....

  • @DieDeutsch was your grandpa a nazi?

  • The ring in the stock is for disassembling the bolt. After you remove the bolt body, place the firing pin into the hole and push down to compress the spring and go from there. There are several videos up on Youtube that show how to do it.

  • @DIOSpeedDemon the little round metal piece was for when they would clean the rifle they would press a certain part of the bolt down on it to get the firing pin out

  • The buttplate is marked gqm 44. gqm stands for the subcontracted factory that made it it was made in 1944 the stock is a replacement. Still a nice rifle.

  • @DieDeutsch Sie bedeuten, dass er ist? Здравствуйте! от России.
