Hello,
I found a 1940 "337" Gustloff that is a complete mix of parts (barrel and receiver match) that is an import but doesn't have the "X" RC stamp. I am searching and understand it may be from Albania? It is really nice looking and the stock has the "H" and two Waffenampt on the right stock, a SN (not matching) on the bottom spine and another WaA on the bottom wrist. The disk has WaA but I didn't get a good photo of it. I can't tell if the stock has been sanded (don't think so but still learning). Anyway, I know it is an absolute hodge-podge of parts but it is still a nice looking rifle IMO. The bore is very good too. Just thought I'd see what the pros here think of it. I believe the stock COULD be a Gustloff stock but I really don't know yet. I'll be buying the two (and third) books soon!
Here are a few pics I'll put the rest in the next post. Unfortunately camera quality not great.
Thanks for all the great education and help.
