*RARE GERMAN VG 2 LAST DITCH BOLT ACTION RIFLE

*RARE GERMAN VG 2 LAST DITCH BOLT ACTION RIFLE. SN 2134A. Cal. 8MM. Bolt action rifle that uses a 10 rnd G43 mag. It has a 21″ bbl with no bayonet lug and was cheaply built at the end of the war made out of a singly U shaped stamping. This example has the mfg. code CYQ which is spreewerk. This is a seldom found rifle in any condition. PROVENANCE: Stern Collection. CONDITION: Condition is fairly good with approx 80% of orig finish showing but with pin prick pitting throughout. Bbl assembly is blued except for the front 4″ retains about 75% of its finish with a significant amount of spotting throughout. Trigger guard assembly and mag catch has a small amount of surface rust that should clean to show better. Front hand guard assembly is in good shape with no major scarring and retains better than 90% of its oil finish. Buttstock assembly shows very good also with some very minor bruising. Buttplate is in good condition with patina on it and cups over back of stock. Mechanics are in need of work as the action works, but firing pin assembly accuates with the bolt. Bore is bright and shiny and appears to be virtually unfired though counter bored approx 1 1/2″ from muzzle. This is an extremely rare piece and with my 40 plus years in guns, this is only the second that I have seen. Sling is good with one small gouge in it approx 5″ behind the front swivel. 4-33960 BK66 (4,000-5,000)
