Denazified by removing the final inspection Waffenamt which was previously in that spot.

Most places and people weren't fans of the nazis after ww2. Lots of nations removed the markings.

Is it numbered on the spine of the stock?

It looks nice..

Hi,
Here are some more photos,was considering it as a base for a repro sniper figured the HT front base may cover the file marks but don't think that it would cover the grind marks on the side of the receiver ,,
is the stock the correct one for this rifle I know they did use walnut ones occasionally in early no suffix block apparently it has a good bore so should make a nice clone.
Do any parts match on this rifle?
thanks freddy

Stock is postwar, probably Czech but maybe E. German.
