Amberg 1918/1919 sporter
18/08/12 10:22 PM

Just restoring an rare "Gewehrfabrik (riflefactory ) Amberg 98 sporter.....
The riflefactory made between nov. 1918 till end of 1919 very few sporter or Pirschbüchsen for the civilian market, just to keep the employes in work. Also there excisting very few from riflefactory Danzig and Erfurt.
Stock is the prewar type with large sideplates, stamped with Amberg logo, also the right side of the system is marked with Gew.F Amberg. Chambered for 8x57 Is ,almost all parts are modified from military parts,trigger is the french type . No civilian proof marks, only the military proofstamp- bavarian lion.
Mounted with an suhler einhak , not known by now if this was made in fabric or later. Scope is an Goerz 3x sniper type with an other rifle sn. Mounting is similar to the bavarian sniper rifles before 1918.
Highest SN from Amberg i know is 9xx.

more pics will follow by interest.....
