Where G43 stocks ever unnumbered and just waffen eagles on the side on the bottom and pistol grip ? on a matching G43 AC

You didn’t say exactly which G43 year you are referring to. I have one early production ac44 G43 in the a block and of course the stock is serialized on the belly. My later K43 m, n, and p block ac44 examples are all without serialized stocks. My ac45 K43 is also sans a serial on the stock. I would think a later G43 (ac45 or a late ac44 if there are any marked that way) that might be using a recycled receiver would probably not have a serialized stock. BLM serialized the stocks all the way to the end.

Thanks! Could you post the page for a late war Walther K43? The c and d serial suffixes, with late war mods and dual lugs?
 
Disregard that it says Berlin-Lubecker. It’s an error in the text. This is what you’re looking for I believe. I think there are a lot of errors on this page. Note that it says serial numbers on the stock on most. I’m pretty sure that’s BLM info (they were serialized at that time) and that very very few Walther 43s at this point had a serialized stock. Probably the basic info was BLMs and they erroneously used it for the ‘45 Walther info.

Thanks again! Describes my ac45 c bloc very well. It always bugged me a bit that it has no firing proofs, stock serial, or stock WaA359 inspection marks, but looks like this is normal. It does have dual lugs, an adjustable trigger, rail, 3mm holes in the gas cylinder, stainless gas piston, and forward set recoil lug. The stock looks quite smooth and unstained, but is actually slightly rough to the touch. It's also mostly blued. Has the smooth butt plate door. The receiver is marked with a small heart on the back by the safety. Has stamped main spring housing.

Thanks for the reply. I was wondering why the stock was not serial #

walther stopped numbering stocks around the N block going off memory or late M. they carry one e/359 proof on the side and one small wrist proof there are exceptions to this some a waac10 marked ect.
