S/42G Rework

Bob in OHIO · Apr 11, 2010

Curious on this rework. Sure appears to be "Ka 14" twice in the wrist over the original E/155. So is this the Kassel HZa? Also, why the added 89 at the wrist? This one seems all orig with replaced HG/extractor and then was cut for a front hood... thoughts?

Yes, HZa Kassel and they seem to be fairly active on small arms reworking. Have a few rifles and pistols on file, with Ka/14 & Ka/16 for rifles while Ka/30 for pistols and one Kar.98a

Not sure why the stray marks as the others do not have it, but I have seen this before- unaccountable random marks so probably something associated with the rework but not identifiable today?

Anyway, nice rifle- love the HZa reworks, even more than the builds!

Makes me think how my rework S/42G looked before Ivan the Terrible molested it.
