On the back of Joels wonderful Kurz project I thought I would share my most recent acquisition
This rifle has an interesting History coupled with, and linked to a decorated and well respected Australian who regretably passed away 2 years ago at the age of 91. Built 1924/5, it is a " full size" Kurz with 23.5 inch barrel and heavier barrel profile chambered for the neat little 250/3000. All original finish is present , both to wood an metal and still with a lot of vibrant nitate blueing evident. More on the history later as Im waiting on verification on particular parts of its History. I do hope you enjoy the photos.
Best Eric

Every small part has matching numbers, without exception.

Regretabley the toe of the Mauser butt plate is broken away just below the bottom screw. I will have to try and greft a piece in.

Wood is above average quality and figure, even for an ealier example such as this.
