Picked this one up this month. Came to me in "attic or closet find" condition, some patina and light surface rust. I very carefully cleaned any active surface rust off it to reveal an appealing brownish patina. It's an all-matching gun with a great bore The stock had what I think was nicotine stains on one side, so I suspect it spend many a year since 1945 hung on the wall somewhere. I cleaned off the nicotine using cotton swabs and pure alcohol. Turned out great with excellent original finish underneath I didn't take pics, but the bolt internals and both stock parts are also stamped matching.





WaA37 marking on the stock keel:



Heer proof:





The only spot of significant rust os on the rear band, presumably from a sling being attached and getting wet (?)
