Sight hood looks like an MP44/G43 repro. Someone went overboard on rust removal, especially the bolt carrier.

The BCD is exactly as i got it. Couldn't turn it down just on the rarity alone.

I like it. They are not easy to find.

A really rare bird there. Gustloff G.43’s are darn near extinct. Just to give you an example: Walther G/K.43 serial number listings are at 166 pages now, BLM rifles are at 97 pages and Gustloff rifles are at 19 pages. There’s no set amount of rifles per page and it depends on how much info I have on particular rifles as to how many are on a page (if that makes any sense at all). Somehow I was fortunate enough to end up with two Gustloff G.43 rifles in my collection. To have ONE is not easy.

Too bad on the blown bolt carrier but like you said, she’s hard to find. Only listing I have on this one is it is listed in Claus Espeholt’s serial number listings.

Rare bird indeed. Shame about the crack but it's part of the story....

Thank you guys!! It is too bad about the crack but that's the way I got it. I never fired any of my G/K 43's, Don't like the idea of ruining one
Thank you all again for all taking a look at it! And thank you Tiger 2 Tank for all that info you posted!

I also put up some photos of my K 43 qve 45 on this forum if you guys want to look at it.

I may have missed it but no mention of the bolt carrier issue.

Looks like a repair was attempted?

I guess. Hopefully if it’s bought to be shot they will replace that bolt carrier.
