Impossible to upgrade, thanks for posting the pictures! Really a marvellous piece, and great to see it complete up to the white leather scope covers.
One thing though, you seem to have a passion for oil
. Kidding aside, is there any assembly number on the scope base on bottom? I wonder if it would match the "8" on the stock.

Hello Xavier. DOW Scope serial is 19598 and I’ll post some pictures here soon.

Thanks for your effort in getting that info. I was always interested if the Sauer LSR’s had something similar to what I had seen on Gustloff LSR’s. Also, wondered how it compared to others.

Very nice Brian, matching Sauer LSRs don’t grow on trees.
Beautiful looking rifle Brian!

Very nice indeed! Any proof marks on the keel? Would love to see some pics.

OK, thanks for all the interest. I will post more pictures. There is a small insignificant repair to the keel of stock. I will picture it. There are no proofs on keel and only dent/marks with nothing distinguishable. Sometimes laminated stocks don't show them well like elm or walnut, unless they were really deep. Maybe part of small repair area. Did not bother me.

No they don't and to have a matching DOW machine ring optic is even more rare I would think.
Thanks for sharing and nice rifle. Sauer Long Side Rails are super cool. Added to the pic sticky.

Hello Mike. The lens covers came from another K43, G43, and Sniper Collector that I met at SOS a while back. The covers appear to made from a type of pressed paper with exterior shiny finish. The covers are fragile. Thanks for your reply.
