Hey, I purchased this rifle a while ago for a steal and as I read through these forums it seems that my rifle might be an SS contract rifle. It is stamped BNZ 44 and from what I understand 'large font BNZ' rifles were made under an SS contract and issued only to SS soldiers (The first photo is a comparison between the large fond BNZ and my dou 43 rifle's font). I have stripped the rifle apart looking for any other markings and this is what I found (See pictures). Also, i've heard the lack of Waffenampt markings also means that it was made for SS. I am aware that this rifle has been reworked, most likely by Yugoslavia, which is why the stock and bolt don't match. The front sight is marked with what looks like an eagle and the number '77' below.
If anyone can give me more info on my rifle I'd really appreciate it!
