Hallo Blackcat,

auch Dir Frohe Ostern!

And now for all, the "ar42" stands for Mauser Werke, Berlin-Borsigwalde 1942 and the "26" below the Eagle on the barrel too. Yes the numbers on the metallwork and the wood are normaly matching numbers. So you have an Rifle made out of two. But thats not a problem not only the Russians did it, the Wehrmacht did it too. And if it is a good shooter than enjoy shooting it. Only the collectors value is low on that rifle but that would be not a problem for me. Ich hoffe Dir geholfen zu haben?! Hope that helps?!

Regards

Gunner

P.S.: If you want it, i can send you a nearly complete list of WaA Codes.
