Found a dou.45 sn a4774.

May be this one of the last kriegsmodel K98k produced for Wehrmacht at Brunn in the first months of '45?

Tomorrow I'll post some pictures.

Hello, can't wait to see photos. However, the highest produced dou45 rifles are in the early "f" block. Still, hard to find dou45 rifles.

I suppose this should be a semi-kriegsmodel produced in the first months of '45; some doubts for the winter triggerguard; the Nazi firing proof eagle may indicate an use by Wehrmacht but some confusion due the lion near the serial no. that should indicate a reuse by Czech army.

Tough to say whether it was finished post-war for the Czech army or late in the war and re-furbd....

I am sure that someone with more knowledge and experience on this forum will be able to determine that!!!
