Description:
Manufactured in 1935 as part of Germany's "discreet" early re-armament program to take back the Rhineland, this rare and exceptional pre-WWII German Mauser is Serial #5,600 and features a fixed blade front and adjustable tangent rear (graduated from 100 to 2,000 meters) sights, "S/42G" code marked on top of the chamber, and drooped wing "eagle" and "K|155" proofed receiver ring and barrel. Matching visible serial numbers on the receiver ring, barrel, bolt assembly, trigger housing, both barrel bands, and buttplate, along with matching "00" partial serial numbers on the magazine floor plate, magazine follower, bolt stop, and rear sight. Fitted with a walnut handguard and walnut stock with matching serial number stamped on the underside, along with "DRP/Kln" codes stamped in the right side sling recess and drooped wing "eagle", "H" (Heer), and drooped wing "eagle/WaA103" stamps on the right of the butt. The rifle is in exceptional condition, retaining 97% of its original blued finish with some minor edge wear, minor cycling wear, a few small areas of visible thinning with some brown patina, minor freckling on the buttplate, and some light handling marks. The bolt has been renumbered to match, while the stock is exceptionally fine with some scattered light compression marks and scuffs, crisp stamps, and attractive original raised grain. Mechanically excellent. Formerly appraised and ed by Rock Island Company in lot #1429. Chambered in 8mm Mauser, and includes a soft case and gun sock for preservation. 8mm Mauser
