This is a 1948 dated Kirrikale Im looking at. Normally I'm not interested in the KKs, but this one has a distinctively different triggerguard. Anyone ever see one like this?

Not a snow trigger guard like the germans fitted to the K-98 for the winters in the Eastern battle grounds!
The bottom (i.e. the actual guard) should be roughly horizontal. So the top (the mounting plate) on this example needs to slope downwards to the rear more strongly than on a typical rifle.
In other words - it looks more like a guard from a pistol! Or at least off a rifle with a strongly downward sloping stock section, such as a pistol grip.
can you get a different view of guard might have seen one before but not sure.
Unfortunately the rifle was sold before I could tell him I would take it. Serves me right for waiting too long..it was kind of unusual.

I think the TG got squished
