Third Party Press

On a scale of 1-10

Not sure if he mentioned it in the ad, but the stock also looks like Steyr to me

Edit: Woops, it's claimed to be a depot rebuild...I'm not sure as to the usage of Steyr stocks in depot guns or the reserializing protocol...
 
I think I see problem with the bolt but I'm not seeing the problem with the floorplate. Will you elaborate?

Font should be identical to the triggerguard, but regardless I don't think the floorplate is even WW2 German, just look at the shape and compare it to other German milled floorplates.
 
My ce 41 has the same style floorplate. Though it had a WaA37 above the serial number. (mines a bolt mismatch romanian used rifle with peened eagles). In the picture reference on this forum there is another ce 41 with the same style floorplate. It is different than most milled k98k floorplates. 1942 Ce rifles ive seen have the standard milled style back on them. But for some reason on ce 41 rifles it seems to be a normal thing. Im thinking the floorplate might be legit on this one. Bolt is obviously humped though, with possibly a slew of other issues.



John.
 
Just to test my ability to identify the forced numbers, the area on the bolt handle looks to be scrubbed and the "g" has been partially removed, or I think that's a g. Also the area doesn't have the semi circular pattern and seems to be straight as if someone used a power sander or grinder on it. I hope that makes sense. I'm new to this and seeing if I catching on. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I also noticed there are different fonts of "3" all over the rifle. Was that common on these or is that another flag?
 
Like an 8.

Yeah. :facepalm: Like I said on Dave's "Clinton, MS. Where Mausers go to get 'matched'." Bullshit story included free of charge. Actually the BS stories look like they passed a lawyer test. Uses a lot of words carefully to try and NOT trap himself in an outright lie.
