She's finally all together, but there's too much snow on my deck!

Check it out.





Pretty standard eh?
Well here's the kicker...




























It's a run of the mill Walther "ac44" no-letter block G43. All matching original action. Unfortunatly I had to replace the ruined original stock with a repro, but it is a beautiful stock set.

The rifle is old news, it's the scope rig thats new.
The scope is an original wartime "dow" ZF4 made in Nazi occupied Czechoslovakia.
The mount is also a post war repro, but fit and function are perfect.

This is my shooter G43, I had recently picked up a very nice all matching example to replace it with, but when it arrived and I disassembled it one of the matching locking lugs was split in two.... luckily the fellow I bought it from understood and took it back.

As soon as I can get a shooters-kit for this one I hope to take the whole rig to my 300yd range, although I've heard that the ZF4 scopes can be somewhat delicate. I do have a spot picked up on my property where I've got about 700yds of visibility (need to bring a rangefinder to confirm), maybe I'll just try the 700yd configuration on the open sights instead
