The markings are clear. Mechanically excellent. Still, no matter the condition, it is still a hand engraved tang Model 1873 rifle which most collectors do not have.

Special Order Bullard Large Frame Lever Action Rifle with Three Digit Serial Number

Lot #3188 (Sale Order 189 of 786)

Special Order Bullard Large Frame Lever Action Rifle with Three Digit Serial Number
Estimate: $2500 - $3750
Bullard rifles are desirable on the collector market today as they were produced only from 1886 to 1890. They competed for sales directly against the Winchester, Marlin and Whitney Arms Company lever action rifles also produced during this time. This fierce competition really stymied their sales creating a very limited production of Bullard rifles, (approximately 10,000 to 12,000). This rifle employs a very long receiver/action that houses a brass cartridge lifting mechanism, (very similar to the Winchester 1876 rifles) to accommodate the larger and longer cartridges. It has a 6 1/4 inch straight cylindrical bolt (similar to the 1873 and 1876 Winchester rifles). This bolt has a unique two-tooth, gear mechanism at the rear that engages a similar two-tooth geared mechanism on the front of the breechblock. This geared mechanism functions off the loading lever and basically acts as the locking lug for the rifle bolt which gave it far more strength to withstand higher pressure of the larger cartridges. The left side of the receiver has a small side plate that allows access to the mechanism inside and the loading gate for the tubular magazine located on the underside of the receiver. This particular rifle has a special order 28" part octagon barrel. It features a full magazine and is equipped with a German silver blade front sight and rifle style ladder rear sight. The left side of receiver has the usual "BULLARD REPEATING ARMS COMPANY / SPRINGFIELD MASS. U.S.A. PAT. AUG. 16. 1881." marking. The right side does not have the Model 1886 markings. The top front of the receiver is marked "Cal / 40" and the serial number is marked on the upper tang directly behind the hammer. Casehardened lever and hammer, and the remaining parts are b...

Excellent Fully Automatic Colt Model 1921 Thompson Submachine Gun with FBI Carrying Case, Drum and S

Lot #3198 (Sale Order 199 of 786)

Excellent Fully Automatic Colt Model 1921 Thompson Submachine Gun with FBI Carrying Case, Drum and Stick Magazines and Accessories
Estimate: $30000 - $50000
This is an excellent example of an all original, fully automatic Colt Model 1921 Thompson Submachine gun. These early models exhibit the finely machined and blued metal parts and components with a bright polished bolt and an oil finish on the wood components. These early guns were the quintessential classic submachine gun used during the depression era gangland warfare by the early law enforcement and the FBI. Ultimately they were adopted by the Military and used through out WWII, Korea and even into Vietnam in a later "M1A1" war expedient configuration. It is estimated that only approximately 15, 000 sets of 1921 parts were produced with almost all of those parts being used to produce the more successful later Model 1928A1 configuration, making these early 1921 sub machine guns a very scarce weapon. The left side of the receiver is marked "MODEL OF 1921" over the serial number "5402" and farther back on the receiver it has the correct 5 line markings of "THOMPSON SUBMACHINE GUN, / CALIBRE 45 AUTOMATIC COLT CARTRIDGE, / MANUFACTURED BY / COLT'S PATENT FIRE ARMS MFG. CO. / HARTFORD CONN. U.S.A." The right side is marked "AUTO-ORDNANCE CORPORATION / NEW YORK U.S.A." with the five line patent dates farther forward, along with the circled "JHB" inspectors mark of Major John Barret, directly behind the ejection port. The left side of the lower receiver assembly is correctly marked with "FULL AUTO" and "SINGLE" along with "FIRE and SAFE" markings behind that. These early production sub machine guns are very distinctive in that they have the desirable early finned barrel to aid in cooling when firing in a full-automatic, the fully adjustable Lyman tangent rear sight with sight...

Rare World War II Gustloff Werke "SM/ svq" Code Nazi MG-42 Machine Gun
Estimate: $10000 - $15000
Introduced in 1942 as a replacement for the MG-34, the MG-42 earned colorful nicknames such as "Hitler's Buzzsaw", "Hitler's Zipper" and the "Linoleum Ripper", due to the unique sound produced by it's 1200-1500 round per minute rate of fire, so fast that the human ear cannot differentiate the individual gunshots.

Fully Transferrable Class III BSA Lewis Mark II Medium Machine Gun

Lot #3200 (Sale Order 201 of 786)

Fully Transferrable Class III BSA Lewis Mark II Medium Machine Gun
Estimate: $13000 - $19000
Designed by American Army Colonel Issac Newton Lewis, who retired from the army and founded Armes Automatiques Lewis in Liege, Belgium following multiple attempts to have the gun accepted by the Americans shot down, mostly for political reasons. Though few of Lewis' guns were made in Belgium, licensing the design to Birmingham Small Arms and Savage Arms, both producing on British contract, made him a sizeable profit. Rather large by modern standards, the 28 pound Lewis was downright svelte next to it's contemporaries, most of which would be unimaginable to maneuver or fire with a single operator. Blade front and notch rear sights, with the distinctive air jacket over the large cooling fins, and a clamp-on bipod with "MOUNT FIELD 303/ LEWIS GUN MARK II/ BS&Co Ltd MAKERS/ NOTTINGHAM" on the collar. The top of the receiver is marked "Lewis Auto.Gun/ Mod.1914-Pat." ahead of the rear sight and "Manufactured by/ The Birmingham Small Arms Co Ltd/ ENGLAND/ for/ Armes Automatiques Lewis/ BELGIUM" around the sight, with "RIGHT" and "LEFT" markings on the bolt guide, and small broad arrow proofs. Mechanically unique, the open bolt operation of the gun is driven by a cylindrical spring mounted on the underside ahead of the trigger guard, as opposed to the helical springs used by most other automatic arms. Smooth panels on the pistol grip, with sling mounts on the air jacket and smooth buttstock. NOTE: This is a fully transferable NFA Class III Firearm currently on a Form 4. You are required to check your state and/or local laws as to whether or not you may own this. This weapon can be transferred to a Class III dealer at no charge.

Beautiful Model 1902 Gold Inlaid Presentation DWM Luger Carbine Complete with Matching Shoulder Stoc

Lot #3224 (Sale Order 225 of 786)

Beautiful Model 1902 Gold Inlaid Presentation DWM Luger Carbine Complete with Matching Shoulder Stock and Accessories
Estimate: $9000 - $14000
This is an attractive example of very desirable DWM Model 1902 Presentation Luger carbine that is complete with the correct matching walnut shoulder stock. The top of the chamber on this specific luger has been nicely engraved with the intertwined gold inlaid script initials "AB". This lot has no history or documentation as to who "AB" was, however, it certainly would be worth doing additional research on this pistol. These carbines were the first attempts by DWM to compete on the European market with a lightweight rifle substitute. The forearm contains a small spring assembly that engages a small lug on the underside of the barrel, which actually functions as an accelerator to help in cycling the pistol. The top of the chamber has the inlaid initials as noted, and the front toggle has the DWM logo for "Deutsche Waffen und Munitions Fabriken". The frame is the early style with flat mainsprings, grip safety, dished toggles, and flat breech bolt. It is fitted with the correct three position rear sight (adjustable from 100-300 meters) and a ramp front sight. The full serial number (21956) is correctly marked on the frame extension and underside of the barrel. The last two digits of the serial number (56) are marked on the bottom of the recoil lug, grip safety, trigger, takedown lever, side plate, rear of the toggle and breech bolt. The last three numbers are marked on the inside of the forearm and top of the stock iron. The right grip is correctly numbered 56 and the left grip numbered 01, however, they match perfectly in color, wood grain and checkering. The buttstock has a black horn buttplate, and the stock and forearm both are correctly fitted with sling swivels. The magazine is a correct co...

Scarce Post WWII Krieghoff "PX" Luger Pistol with Holster

Lot #3225 (Sale Order 226 of 786)

Scarce Post WWII Krieghoff "PX" Luger Pistol with Holster
Estimate: $6500 - $9500
This is a beautiful example of a very scarce "PX" Krieghoff Luger pistol. It is estimated that approximately 245 of these were produced in total directly after the end of WWII. The various parts, frames, barrels and barrel extensions for these pistols were actually produced some time in the last months before the end of the war; i.e. Feb-May 1945 timeframe. Then afterwards with the country in total destruction, the Krieghoff factory was strapped for money and decided to use these various parts to assemble Lugers pistols for sale to the "souvenir hungry" GI through the various stores and local PX system. Hence the collector name, "PX" luger. These lugers will have mostly all Krieghoff made parts with some being fitted with Mauser factory barrels as in this example. It is estimated that the first 75-100 lugers that were assembled used toggles that still retained the Heinrich Krieghoff logo on top and after they ran out, all remaining lugers had blank parts, as in the case of this example. The only markings on this luger are the large serial number (128) stamped on the front end of the frame and the left side of the barrel extension along with a small "eagle/2" proof mark on the right side with a small "Eagle 135" Waffenamt on the left side of the barrel. It still retains the prewar, "GLADEN" and "GESICHERT" marked extractor and safety area. The magazine is the late war third model with the all blued magazine bodies, with the brown base plug with the pin through the center. With a black leather flap holster, unmarked, with a blue finished plastic base magazine.

This specific pistol has the correct Swiss cross in a sunburst on top of the chamber area with the top of the toggle marked "DWM" with the original unaltered "V" rear sight. The left side of the barrel extension has the standard Commercial Crown over "B and U" proofs.

Mauser Persian Contract Artillery Rig with Shoulder Stock Assembly
Estimate: $4000 - $5500
This is an example of a scarce Persian contract Luger artillery rig. This specific pistol is a Mauser Artillery Luger that was produced under contract for the country of Iran. There were a total of 1000 Artillery lugers produced in the 1936-1937 timeframe by the Mauser factory. These are basically 1914 Artillery Lugers, similar to those produced during WWI for the German and Austrian army to include the 8 inch artillery barrel with 1000 meter adjustable rear sight, wooden board shoulder stock and long leather artillery holster with double magazine pouch. These models were all marked in Farsi except for the proof marks.

WWII Mauser "byf" Code 41 Dated Ku Luger Pistol

This is one of byf code, 41 dated Ku marked P-08 pistols produced for the Luftwaffe. The toggle has the "byf" code and the date "41" appears on the chamber.

Some have concluded that the "Ku" stands for "Kummerrer" or substandard or mis-sized since these pistols were assembled for the Luftwaffe from leftover or mis-sized parts. Others have concluded the "Ku" is a stylized "LZA" that means "Luftwaffe Zeug Amt". The right side of the barrel extension and left side of the barrel has Luftwaffe eagle inspection marks, with the barrel also having "S/42" on the underside and a "WI154" proof on the left side. The left side of the frame is marked "P.08", with extractor and upper safety area marked "GELADEN" and "GESICHERT" respectively. Fitted with checkered grips.

Exceptional WWII German G41 "duv 43" Code Semi-Automatic Sniper Rifle with Desirable Double Leg Stra

Lot #3245 (Sale Order 246 of 786)

Exceptional WWII German G41 "duv 43" Code Semi-Automatic Sniper Rifle with Desirable Double Leg Straddle Mount, ZF40 Scope, with Bayonet, Scabbard and Leather Frog
Estimate: $9000 - $16000
This is an early example of very desirable G41rifle as produced by the Berlin-Lubecker company, that has been fitted with one of the desirable reproduction double leg straddle mounts that has been fitted with an original early production ZF-40 scope. Original straddle mounts are extremely rare and are virtually unheard of in today's collections. They are only noted or pictured in some of the early G41 rifle manuals or factory literature in the 1940/41 time frame with one or two original examples in large Military museums today. This rifle is fitted with a excellent example of a current reproduction of what one of these rare mounts would look like. It has the double legs that slide onto or across the rear sight base that has a single large locking lever on the right side. It is completely machined and is fitted with a very early ZF40-41/1 scope that was manufactured by the Opticotechna factory in Czechoslovakia and carries the correct "dow" manufacturer's code. The side of the mount is marked on the left side with only "D-01". The rifle itself was produced early on in the production cycle of the G41/G43 Series of semi-automatic rifle with an estimated total production of less than 10000 before all production switched to the standard G43 series of rifles. These early G41 series of rifles used the "Bang Gas-Trap" system which employed a barrel mounted "Gas Trap" muzzle cone to trap hot gas that bleed off when the round was fired and which cycled the action. This entire series of rifles was very short lived and they saw extensive use on the Eastern Front where a semi-automatic rifle was considered essential for "long-life". Consequently, their surviv...

The left side of the receiver is marked with the Nazi Eagle proof, Waffenamt proof and Eagle/Swastika firing proof ahead of "G43" followed by the serial number and a stamped "ac / 44" code indicating manufacture at the Walther plant. The serial number is also present on the left side of the bolt carrier under the cocking lever. The cocking knob is on the left side and the safety lever is on the rear of the receiver. The action cover is the stamped version with the sliding dust cover. This rifle has the side mounted quick release scope mount and ZFK43/1 sniper scope. The scope has a wooden plug for the optic end and a leather lens cover for the object end. It has the standard hooded blade front sight with the standard military rear tangent sight graduated to 1,200 meters.

Exceptional and Rare WWII Mauser G-41 (M) Semi-Automatic Rifle

Lot #3247 (Sale Order 248 of 786)

Exceptional and Rare WWII Mauser G-41 (M) Semi-Automatic Rifle
Estimate: $9000 - $18000
This is an excellent example of a completely original and unaltered prewar G-41(M) rifle as manufactured by the Mauser factory. This style of rifle was produced by the Mauser factory in response to a request by the German Weapons office, in 1941 which stipulated that the rifle had to be a semi-automatic rifle but to be activated or cock in the style of the 98K bolt Acton rifle. Consequently these rifles don't not have the traditional sliding cocking handle on the right side of the receiver, but instead use the standard 98K style bolt handle to initially cock the rifle. These rifles employ the early "Bang gas trap" gas system that utilizes a muzzle cone on the end of the barrel to trap gas and cycle the rifle. As noted it is initially cocked like a 98K rifle, then during the cycling function this 98K style bolt handle/assembly is disengaged and the rifle functions from gas that is trapped in the muzzle cone which cycles an operating rod located under the barrel. The actual bolt is constructed in two pieces with a rotating bolt head with dual locking lugs, with a machined top cover. The cylindrical receiver is marked on top, with the small "Eagle 135" proof, over "G-41(M) over 1942" with the actual serial number of the rifle stamped on the left side of the integral rear sight base. It has the all machined trigger guard, machined extended ten round box magazine and machined barrel bands. It is fitted with the original WWII walnut stock with cupped steel butt plate and short walnut top hand guard. The left side of the butt stock is stamped with a "Eagle WaA135" Waffenamt proof with a smaller one on the underside and in the pistol grip area. Directly behind the pistol grip it is stamped with the rifle serial number. These are a very rare rifle today...

Lot #3248 (Sale Order 249 of 786)

Exceptional and Unique WWII Nazi Experimental G33/40 Sniper Rifle Serial Number 2 with ZF41 Scope
Estimate: $7500 - $15000
This is a near new early example of an experimental WWII German G33/40 Mountain carbine that was produced as a test carbine mounting a ZF41 sniper or shooting aid, sniper scope. There have been several pictures that depicts this type of mounting system on a G33/40 however no verifiable example ever surfaced. Based on the serial number of this specific carbine (number 2) this is an actual example of this rare carbine. This is a standard G33/40 mountain carbine with the small ring receiver and lightening cutouts on the receiver and bolt, that was subsequently modified by installing a one piece G33/40 machined rear sight base with an integral side mounted dovetail slot for the ZF41 scope mount. The side and rear of the walnut hand guard has also been milled out to allow for mounting and dismount of the scope, while the underside of the hand guard has a metal reinforcing ring in place to strengthen it. The scope was produced by Emil Busch, Rathenow and it carries the "cxn" makers code with a small blue + symbol and is an earlier version that has had the markings milled off and then remarked ZF41/1 in the cutout. The mount is correct wartime version that is marked with a single "duv" wartime makers code over an "eagle 214" proof. The underside of the barrel is stamped with a double "Eagle 63" proof.

The total numbers of Krieghoff pistol actually produced for the Luftwaffe during WWII are estimated at approximately 13,000 with only "500" total produced with the rare two-digit "36" dated chamber area.

Excellent WWII German "G Date" Mauser Luger
Estimate: $2000 - $3500
This is an exceptional example of a early WWII German luger pistol as produced by the Mauser factory in 1935.

These letter codes were intended to disguise the rearmament effort that was on-going in the early 1930s. For this pistol, the "G" date signifies 1935 for the actual year of manufacture.

Magnificent Rare WWII Nazi G33/40 Experimental "Folding Stock" Mountain/Paratrooper Carbine with Bay

Lot #3301 (Sale Order 302 of 786)

Magnificent Rare WWII Nazi G33/40 Experimental "Folding Stock" Mountain/Paratrooper Carbine with Bayonet
Estimate: $10000 - $20000
This is an exceptional example of a WWII G33/40 Prototype "Folding Stock" carbine. Several of the current K98 reference books show some line drawings of these prototype folding stock/hinge mechanisms with only a single photograph. These G33/40 folding stock carbines were a late war development that was intended primarily for paratrooper and mountain troops to allow easy storage and carrying while in route to the battle field. The folding or hinge mechanism is very unique and attaches directly behind the rear of the receiver, with the locking mechanism on the right side with the hinge on the left side, thus allowing the butt stock to fold to the left side of the carbine, away from the bolt handle side. The actual mechanism is a massive all machined steel hinge with an internal locking mechanism, leaving the sides of the hinge area very smooth with no sharp protruding mechanisms. The hinge assembly has a single large locking screw on the right side and when you turn the screw a quarter turn and push it inward, it unlocks the hinge, allowing the stock to hinge to the left. To extend the stock to its normal length you just reverse procedure and turn the screw a quarter turn back to its original position to relock it again. Simple, easy and very robust, excellent Teutonic design and workmanship. The actual G33/40 carbine in this case is a late war version that is marked on top of the receiver ring, with "7,88/dot/1942" for the bore diameter, wartime code for the Czech factory at Brno and the year of manufacture. The forward portion of the trigger guard is marked "GERMANY". The right side of the small receiver ring has two small "eagle/ 63" proofs, with a single WaA63 Waffenamt in-between. The left side has th...

Extremely Rare Early Walther G41(W) "Push Button" Action Release Semi-Automatic Rifle

Lot #3302 (Sale Order 303 of 786)

Extremely Rare Early Walther G41(W) "Push Button" Action Release Semi-Automatic Rifle
Estimate: $7500 - $15000
This is a very early production of an extremely scarce G41(W) rifle manufactured in late 1941 or early 1942 by the Walther factory, that utilizes the push button bolt release mechanism found only on these earliest first series of G41 rifles. This push button release is found on the left side of the stock below the bolt carrier and was intended to release the bolt and bolt carrier group after the rifle was loaded. This feature was discontinued in the 7500 serial number range, making these rifles an even more rare of a production variation. Most of these rifles went to the Eastern front when the Germans invaded Russia and good solid original examples are very rare today. It has the all machined parts, with a full-length laminated stock with double WaA359 Waffenamt proofmarks with the black plastic (Phonelic Resin) handguard, another war expedient feature intended to save on the use of wood. These rifles were intended to be the first fielding of a German semi-automatic rifle to increase firepower by the average German soldier over the standard K98 rifle. These early rifles featured the barrel mounted "Bang" gas trap mechanism, with the full length piston rod above the barrel. These early models were the forerunners to the G43 series of rifles but proved too costly to manufacture due to the numerous fully machined parts and certainly not robust enough for long term use. It is estimated that only 10,000 of this version were manufactured before they were changed to the more reliable G/K-43 series of rifles. These rifles have the Type One machined receiver and bolt carrier. The left side of the receiver is marked G 41(W) with the serial number "1796ac" stamped on the upper portion of the receiver below the rear sight with a sing...

Lot #3303 (Sale Order 304 of 786)

Experimental WWII German G43 (ac44) Code Semi-Automatic Sniper Rifle with Rare Extra Length Barrel
Estimate: $8500 - $20000
This is an excellent example of a Walther produced G43 semi-automatic sniper rifle with an extra length barrel. The barrel measures 25 inches in length, which is three inches longer than the standard 22 inch length. (Refer to page 105 of "The German Sniper 1914-1945" by Senich, in which he states that this was done to improve accuracy.) Additionally, the rifle was fitted with a dual bolt guide rib for increased stability and accuracy. The left side of the receiver is marked with the Nazi Eagle proof ahead of "G43" followed by the serial number and a stamped "ac / 44" code indicating manufacture at the Walther plant. The serial number is also present on the left side of the bolt carrier under the cocking lever and an "eagle / 359" proof above the serial number. The hollow cocking knob is on the left side and the safety lever is on the rear of the receiver. The action cover is the stamped version with the automatic sliding dust cover. This rifle has the side mounted quick release scope mount and unmarked ZF style scope. The rifle has the standard hooded blade front sight with the standard military rear tangent sight graduated to 1,200 meters. The stock and matching handguard are the correct WWII pistol grip laminated version with a cupped steel buttplate with the buttstock compartment. The left side of the stock has two crisp "eagle swastika / 359" proofs and the pistol grip area has an Eagle Waffenamt proof with the matching serial number and "eagle / 359" proof on the underside. One of the inspector proofs was added next to a small stock blemish, indicating the blemish was noted at the factory and did not occur later.

Rare, One of Less Than 500, Last Ditch Nazi VG1 "srg" Code Bolt Action Rifle

Lot #3304 (Sale Order 305 of 786)

Rare, One of Less Than 500, Last Ditch Nazi VG1 "srg" Code Bolt Action Rifle
Estimate: $6500 - $12000
This is a very rare, late war bolt action rifle that was produced in Mar/April 1945. These rifles represented the Nazi's final attempts to manufacture a simple but serviceable weapon for the Volkssturm. These rifles were to capitalize on the traditional turning and drilling operators for rifle production, hence the round bar stock receiver, bolt and barrel group. The remaining parts are all stampings or welded operations. This rifle is marked "113" on top of the receiver and end of the bolt handle with "srg" on the left side. There are no proofmarks of any sort. These rifles used a magazine from a K43 semi-automatic rifle and were roughly made. The late war beech stock is also unmarked and has a simple flat sheet metal buttplate, cross-bolt and simple sling ring on the left front of the forearm. The bottom rear of the stock is stamped "3/1" signifying issue to the 1st Volksstrum Battalion, Gau Berlin. The barrel is stepped and is equipped with a dove tailed blade front sight, and there is a square notch rear sight on the front receiver plate. It has a ten round K-43 magazine marked "aVX", "eagle / WaA204" and "K43". These VG1 rifles are scarce and the coded examples are among the rarest with less than 500 produced. This variation is discussed on page 158 of "Desperate Measures" by Darrin Weavers.

Scarce Late WWII Nazi "VK-98" Volksgewehr Rifle In 7.92 Kurz

Lot #3305 (Sale Order 306 of 786)

Scarce Late WWII Nazi "VK-98" Volksgewehr Rifle In 7.92 Kurz
Estimate: $4000 - $7000
This is another excellent example of a late WWII German "VK-98" or Volksgewehr or Peoples Rifle. These late war single shot rifles are extremely rare, not only because they produced so few of them but because they looked awful and not many GI's brought these home as war souvenirs. This specific rifle is even rarer in that it is chambered in "7.92 Kurz" which was the short 7.92 mm round developed for the MP44 assault rifles. These models were all made by the Steyr factory and the top of the receiver has the late war "bnz 45" markings with no acceptance or firing proofs with only a single letter "V" on the underside of the receiver. This rifle has the heavier rough turned machine gun barrel that shows the late war exterior finish with a single step in the barrel. The caliber (7,92 KURZ) is stamped on top of the barrel in a small milled out section, with the serial number (471) is located on the left side. The matching serial number is also stamped on top of the bolt and on top of the simple recoil lug in the stock. This rifle has only a follower inside the action that allows the shooter to drop a single round on top of it so that it can be loaded into the chamber. The bolt is the late war version that is without the guide rib with the serial number on top and a single letter "V" on the underside, with no other proof marks anywhere. For sight these used a simple front post that was welded on to the top of the barrel (properly correct counter bored at the muzzle) with a simple "v" style rear sight dovetailed into the top of the front recover ring. The stock is correctly made from beech with minimal machining or inletting with flat sides with no buttplate or magazine assembly with only a small cut out through the butt area for the sling to slide through...

Interesting Late WWII Walther AC 45 Code dual Stamp G43/ K43 Sniper Rifle with Scope and Mount
Estimate: $3500 - $4750
This is a nice example of a late-war production K43 Sniper rifle as manufactured by the Walther factory and given the war time code of "ac". These semi-automatic rifles were equivalent to the M1 Garand in the German Army and were intended to provide an increase in firepower.

Exceptional Late WWII Nazi "ce" Code Long Side Rail K98 Sniper Rifle With Scarce Adjustable Center F

Lot #3307 (Sale Order 308 of 786)

Exceptional Late WWII Nazi "ce" Code Long Side Rail K98 Sniper Rifle With Scarce Adjustable Center Focus Scope
Estimate: $6000 - $9000
This is a very rare and desirable later production K98k long side rail sniper rifle produced by J.P. Sauer & Sohns in Suhl and mounted with an unmarked center focus adjustments. These long side rail snipers were the last major variation of sniper rifle that was produced during WWII by the German and represented probably the best and most durable of the designs. Development of this series of rifle started in mid 1943 at the J.P. Sauer and Sohns factory and were thought to be the original prototype designer and developer of this series of rifle based on their extensive pre-war sporting rifle experience. These rifles were produced on a special enlarged receiver ring that was able to facilitate the machining of a cutout or lip on the left side of the receiver to which a large scope mounting base was fitted and held on by three large screws and two taper pins. As noted, initial development started in 1943 and during that year only J.P. Sauer and Sohns produced long side rail sniper rifles, making them relatively scarce. After that (1944-45) production slowly transitioned to the Gustloff Werkes in Weimar (with receivers coded "bcd") with assembly and final acceptance by inspectors from Sauer and Sohns during that first year. The top of the receiver is marked with the Nazi firing proof over "ce" / B in a triangle / 43", the right side with an "eagle / 389" and the left side with a Nazi firing proof. The left side of the barrel is marked with a Nazi firing proof over the serial number and the right side "G243". Stamped barrel bands, milled floor plate and trigger guard with "Mod 98" marked winter cover and laminated stock with eagle proof marks and faint "3017" on the right side of the buttstock.

Lot #3315 (Sale Order 316 of 786)

Rare WWII German J. P. Sauer K98 Sniper Rifle with Swept Back Style Scope Mount and ZF 4 Scope
Estimate: $3500 - $7500
This is an example of a late-war production K98 rifle made by J. P. Sauer and Sohns with one of the copies of a late war variant Swept-Back style sniper mount.

Sauer and Sohns K98 rifles. The rifle is equipped with a ZF4 extended eye relief sniper scope. These late war mounts were intended to be an easy to produce, rigid and robust scope mount and base system that could be easily mount on the standard K98 rifle, without special sized receivers or complicated soldering and mounting techniques, that utilized the new ZF4 style of scope that was also a war expedient version of the traditional German sniper scopes. The left side of the scope is marked "ZF 4 dow triangle" over "13244". It has the leather cover with a wooden plug on the optic end. The top of the receiver ring is marked "ce" over "44".

This is an excellent example of a late WWII German K98 rifle that was converted into a short side rail sniper rifle, by the Gustloff-Werkes factory. The scope base and mount is the German short side rail type that has the mid-war, style of mount without the additional locking lever on top, that has the three large base screws, three locking screws and two taper pins to secure the base to the side of the rifle. The mount is a correct WWII German style with the single locking lever on the side that is numbered to match the rifle. The scope is a late war unmarked commercial variation that has the correct elevation graduations (100-800 meters) that is marked on top of the windage dial. The only markings on the scope are on the elevation base that is marked "4X81" but it is very similar to the Hensoldt and Zeiss scope issued during WWII. The top of the receiver is marked with a single Eagle 749 proof over "bcd/4" for the manufactures code and year of production. The right side of the receiver has the double firing proof with the single number "1" bcd factory proofmark. The rear of the barrel has only the single Eagle firing proof next to the serial number and the underside has the barrel makers code of "chAd" with a single WaA147 Waffenamt. The rifle has the late war unmarked stamped barrel bands and trigger guard with a milled floor plate. The front of the trigger guard is marked "GERMANY". The stock and handguard are both the late war laminated style that is also unmarked or proofed. The rifle barrel and receiver has the late war "in the white" factory finish with blued barrel bands. The scope mount, base and scope all have a nice wartime blued finish overall.

WWII Gustloff-Werke "bcd" Code G43 Semi-Automatic Sniper Rifle with ZF-4 Scope and Mount

Lot #3338 (Sale Order 339 of 786)

WWII Gustloff-Werke "bcd" Code G43 Semi-Automatic Sniper Rifle with ZF-4 Scope and Mount
Estimate: $4000 - $6000
This is a nice example of a bcd code G43 rifle that was manufactured by Gustloff-Werke. These rifles were the first true production G43 rifles. They are characterized by the type 1 milled receiver and milled components. It is estimated that only approximately 40,000 total of this type were produced with the probability that this model was assembled at the Buchenwald concentration camp under the SS, as noted in "Hitler's Garands". The left side of the receiver is marked with a Nazi firing proof and an asterisk/sunburst proofmark over "bcd serial number G43 and Nazi firing proof". The matching bolt carrier is also the early type 2 rough cast version similar to the G41 series of rifles that retains the solid cocking knob on the left side and the bolt hold open latch on the right side without the reinforcing web on top. The action housing is the correct stamped version with the automatic dust cover. Hooded high ramp front sight, tangent rear sight graduated to 1200 meters, threaded muzzle with cover and cleaning rod with slotted head. The stock and handguard are laminated and the left side of the buttstock is marked with an "eagle / 359" proof and the wrist is marked with a "eagle / WaA 359" proofmark. Complete with the correct mount with an "eagle /359" proof, "558" marked at the front and correctly "fest" and "lose" marked locking lever and a ZF 4 scope marked "GW ZF 4 dow triangle / 38554" on the left side with rubber eye piece, wood plug and leather objective end cover.

Unique K98 Prototype "Heavy Barreled" Turret Sniper Rifle with Scope

Lot #3339 (Sale Order 340 of 786)

Unique K98 Prototype "Heavy Barreled" Turret Sniper Rifle with Scope
Estimate: $4000 - $8000
This is another beautiful example of a prototype K98 style heavy barreled sniper rifle "Serial Number 7". This rifle is almost identical to the "Long Side" rifle that is also offered in this auction, except it was built using the turret type sniper set up. The rifle was assembled using an early wartime K98 Mauser receiver only this version was fitted with a set of low turret sniper mounts. These turret style sniper rifles were one of the most used and best handling German sniper rifle produced during WWI. However they also proved to be one of the most time consuming and difficult to manufacture. The top of the receiver is covered by the front turret base, however, we can see the lower portion of two small Mauser eagle 63 proofs on the right side just below the base and the receiver side wall has the standard "MOD 98" markings. The left side of the receiver has the remnants of the original German Eagle firing proof along with serial number "7". As noted the receiver has the correct low turret scope bases, and rings, all of which are unmarked or proofed. With a early Hensoldt-Dialytan scope. The side of the scope is marked; "HENSOLDT-WETZLAR/DIALYTAN 4X Nr.726, and it has a taper post and cross-hair reticule similar to that used in the US M82 and M84 scopes. The top elevation knob is correctly marked with a range scale, from 0-50, which we assume would corresponds to 0-500 meters. The two most intriguing features of this rifle, like the long side rail offered in this auction, is that it is fitted with a heavy target type sniper barrel with a new factory (not cut down) half length hardwood (beech) stock and handguard. The stock and handguard are both stamped with serial number "7" and the stock is identical to the late war version that lack th...

This is just a beautiful example of an extremely rare 1902 DWM Luger that has been fitted with the unique "Powell Indicating Device", commonly called a "Cartridge Counter" on the left side of the grip. There were exactly "50" of these pistols produced, and they fall into a specific serial number range (22401-22450), with the serial number of this specific example produced right at the end of the production range, which is probably why it has remained in such exceptional condition. This cartridge counter device was a US developed feature and was expressly ordered by the US Board of Ordnance for testing in late 1902 early 1903. The US Government then acquired these pistols in exchange for 50 each, 1900 Test Luger pistols in the spring of 1904. The Model 1902 "Cartridge Counter" Luger pistols were issued to the Cavalry and Light Artillery Boards at Ft. Riley, Kansas on April 19,1904 for field testing. On July 4, 1904, the Cavalry Board issued the final test report on the Model 1902 Luger, which recommended that these Lugers NOT be adopted for service. This Powell Indicating Device consists of a standard wood base magazine that has been slotted on the left side of the magazine body and fitted with a special follower that had a small pin/special indicator screw fitted on the left side that would move up and down, from the fully loaded, to empty position as the cartridges are fired.

Rare 1941 Johnson Semi-Automatic Prototype Rifle

Lot #3490 (Sale Order 491 of 786)

Rare 1941 Johnson Semi-Automatic Prototype Rifle
Estimate: $6500 - $15000
This is an example of a unique Johnson Prototype rifle. This specific rifle is also one of a hand full of prototype rifles that were manufactured by the "Johnson Automatics" rifle company in Providence RI., prior to WWII, during the early developmental stages of the very successful Model of 1941 light machine gun. The model of 1941 was again a early favorite of the USMC in the early days of WWII in the Pacific theatre and again by the First Special Services Unit in the 1942/1943 time frame. The Johnson Model 1941 machine gun is basically identical to this rifle except this model fires in a "semi-automatic" mode only, making it fully legal to own by anyone. This rifle has the all original gray-green parkerized finish on the metal parts with the oil finished stock, pistol grip panels and short forend with the bolt left in the original, "in the white" polished state. These Johnson rifles were the brainchild of Colonel Melvin Johnson (USMC) an early inventor and weapon designer that utilized some fairly unique features in 1939-1940 timeframe, such as the recoil-operated firing mechanism where the recoil of the round actually allowed the barrel to move slightly rearward to start the unlocking mechanism, as well as the barrel takedown mechanism, both unique to Johnson rifles only. This rifle as noted is a "prototype" design and the top of the receiver is roll marked with the five line patent numbers and dates, next to; "CAL. 30-'06 SEMI-AUTO. /"JOHNSON AUTOMATICS"/MODEL OF 1941/MADE IN PROVIDENCE R.I.U.S.A/X0007", with the right side of the lower receiver marked "LOAD, SAFE and FIRE". One of the interesting designs of this rifle is the "Load" feature on the receiver. When in this mode the bolt stays rearward after the last round is fired from the magazine and after...

Very Rare and Exceptional WWII Inland "T3" Carbine

Lot #3494 (Sale Order 495 of 786)

Very Rare and Exceptional WWII Inland "T3" Carbine
Estimate: $10000 - $16000
This is just a fantastic example of an all original WWII Inland produced "T3" Carbine. This is the original Infrared model carbine that was developed and produced in early/mid 1944 for use with the early model M2 Infrared sniper scope. These were produced on an extremely limited basis with an estimated quantity of only "1000" ever produced in their own serial number range. As all carbine collectors know 99.9% of all these carbines were demilitarized by torch cutting after WWII. You may see some re-welded versions out there, but you will never see an all original T3 carbine like this again. As noted, these T3 carbines were specifically designated to use with the original M2 Infrared Sniper Scope with the large infrared emitter lens mounted on the underside forend of the stock, with the smaller scope still mounted on top of the receiver. The primary difference between these T3 carbines and the standard M1 carbine, (aside from the scope mounting position) is that they all had a one piece integral scope base brazed and pinned on top of the receiver. This integral base may have been one of the primary reasons for the removal and demilitarization of this model from Army inventory as it was later replaced by the standard M3 Infrared Sniper scope conversion package, with the separate long mounting bar. This M3 conversion package would allow a standard M1 carbine to be converted for use with the infrared scope and then reconverted back to it's original configuration, whereas the "T3" model had to be used with infrared scope only as there were no provisions for any rear sight. This one-piece, integral scope mount forced a relocation of the model number from the top of the receiver to the right rear side of the receiver. This carbine has the following markings; top o...

Extremely Rare Un-Modified Colt Army Contract of 1907, Semi-Automatic Pistol

Lot #3501 (Sale Order 502 of 786)

Extremely Rare Un-Modified Colt Army Contract of 1907, Semi-Automatic Pistol
Estimate: $14000 - $22500
A rare example of the one of the 205 Colt pistols manufactured under the Army Contract of 1907 for field trials. This pistol, serial number 133, was shipped from Colt to the Springfield Armory on March 17, 1908 and was one of 65 pistols issued to Troop H, 4th Cavalry Regiment at Fort Snelling, Minnesota. (The consignor is from Minnesota). Factory records (photocopy included) confirm the shipping date and address, as well as the special Government features. The pistol has the Colt high polish commercial blue finish, niter blue trigger and small components, casehardened hammer and checkered walnut grips with small diamonds surrounding the screw escutcheons. The magazine has a full blue finish with unmarked base. The right side of the slide is roll-stamped "AUTOMATIC COLT/CALIBRE 45 RIMLESS SMOKELESS" in two lines, and the left side is marked: "PATENTED/APR. 20, 1897. SEPT.9.1902. DEC.19.1905." in two lines followed by "COLT'S PATENT FIRE ARMS MFG. CO./HARTFORD. CONN. U.S.A." The serial number "133" is located on the left side of the frame above the trigger guard bow, which has the initials of Ordnance inspector "K.M." (Major Kenneth Morton). As a result of the 1907's performance at the field trials, all but 60 of the pistols were upgraded to account for the soldier's complaints, a line of experimentation that led directly to the Model 1911 pistol. In "COLT .45 SERVICE PISTOLS" by Charles Clawson, the modified pistols are listed by serial number; this pistol, No. 133, is not on the list and is one of the 60 un-modified Model 1907 Contract Pistols. Un-modified Model 1907 Contract Pistols are extremely rare. With an October 1918 dated Mills brown canvas magazine pouch.

This unique WWII weapon was conceptualized and designed by Captain Stanley Haight, a US Naval Academy graduate in the early 1940s. His basic idea was to develop some kind of basic "last defense" weapon that could be issued to any and all heavy equipment, machine operator or common labors to defend themselves in their day to day job without having to constantly drag around some kind of heavy weapon. His single shot pistol design could be attached to the every day, common leather gloves as issued to all Seabees and construction crews during WWII. It was fired by simply making a fist and punching the attacker, with the actual inertia or force of the punch triggering the weapon to fire straight off the glove and striking the attacker. Captain Haight actually submitted his prototype design through Navy channels in July 1943. It went through rapid field trials, and although the trials identified a couple of short comings in the design, the Navy approved the design and proceeded with the development of the "Fist Gun". On August 25 the R.F. Sedgley offered to produce the initial run of 25 prototypes for test. The barrel and complete firing mechanism would be attached to several different sized common labor leather gloves for testing purposes. Although there was significant interest in this design, and the system was quickly tested and approved by the Navy, it appears that either due to a lack of funding or continued advances in winning the war in the far east, only a very small number were ever produced. These estimates include, only "2" prototypes, with up to "25" examples of the "Preproduction" or "Pilot" models and perh...

Rare U.S. Navy marked "Preproduction" Serial Number "7" Sedgley "Fist Gun" with History

Lot #3507 (Sale Order 508 of 786)

Rare U.S. Navy marked "Preproduction" Serial Number "7" Sedgley "Fist Gun" with History
Estimate: $7500 - $15000
This example is the follow-on lot to the one noted above and is actually one of the very rare "Preproduction" model Fist Guns discussed in the lead in paragraph above. This specific example is also described and photographed in the "Man At Arms" gun collector magazine, Vol 29, No. 1 2007. This example exhibits all the features of an actual true production model in that the barrel and firing mechanism is more rounded and not blockish as the prototype design and the actual firing mechanism is fully enclosed in a steel housing. The back plate of the gun is slightly curved to conform to the back side of the users hand, (unlike the prototype which is flat), it has incorporated a safety lever on the firing mechanism along with a rudimentary, combined hand ejector/extractor mounted on the side of the barrel. It has the same function as the prototype, with a single shot, swing out barrel design with a smooth bore. Interestingly this example is chambered for a .38 caliber cartridge which appears to be a .38 Special length chamber, and not a 38 S&W cartridge. In this example the firing mechanism is also attached to a left handed leather work glove. When you swing out the barrel it is correctly marked in four lines; "R.F. SEDGLEY INC./U.S. NAVY/PROPERTY/ encircled "S" Sedgley marking" and off to the right side of the markings it is stamped with serial number "7".

Lot #3512 (Sale Order 513 of 786)

Rare Pre-1941 Johnson Semi-Automatic Prototype Rifle
Estimate: $6500 - $15000
This is an example of a unique Johnson Prototype rifle. This specific rifle is one of a hand full of prototype rifles that were manufactured by the "Johnson Automatics" rifle company in Providence RI., prior to WWI, during the early developmental stages of the very successful Model of 1941 light machine gun. The model of 1941 was an early favorite of the USMC in the island hopping campaigns and again by the First Special Services Unit in the 1942/1943 time frame. The Model 1941 machine gun is identical to this rifle except this model fires in a "semi-automatic" mode only, making it fully legal to own by anyone. This rifle has the all original gray-green parkerized finish on the metal parts with the oil finished stock. Pistol grip panels and short forend with the bolt left in the original, "in the white" polished state. These Johnson rifles were the brainchild of Colonel Melvin Johnson (USMC) an early inventor and weapon designer that utilized some fairly unique features in 1939-1940 timeframe, such as the recoil-operated, firing mechanism where the recoil of the round actually allowed the barrel to move slightly rearward to start the unlocking mechanism, as well as the barrel takedown mechanism, both unique to Johnson rifles only. This rifle as noted is a "Pre-1941" model, and as such, is roll marked on top of the receiver with the following; the five line patent numbers and dates, next to; "CAL. 30-'06 SEMI-AUTO. /"JOHNSON AUTOMATICS"/MODEL OF 1940/MADE IN PROVIDENCE R.I.U.S.A/XLMR03". The right side of the lower receiver is marked "LOAD, SAFE and FIRE". One of the interesting designs of this rifle is the "Load" feature on the receiver.

U.S. General Motors Guide Lamp Division FP-45 Liberator Pistol

Lot #3544 (Sale Order 545 of 786)

U.S. General Motors Guide Lamp Division FP-45 Liberator Pistol
Estimate: $1200 - $1800
Produced from 1942-1945 by the Guide Lamp Division of General Motors, the Liberator was issued the nomenclature "Flare Pistol, 45 Caliber" in order to obscure its true purpose; to be airdropped in occupied territories and be used by disgruntled citizens and resistance fighters to eliminate a German soldier and steal his weapon. Designed with cost first in mind, the roughness of the weapon is little penalty if it is used properly; on a lone, unaware target, at very close range, preferably in the dark. This is a three hole model that was made from sheet metal stampings that were spot welded together on top of the smooth bore barrel, and fitted with a cast zinc cocking knob with integral guide pin. The grip is hollow to store additional rounds, but the cover is absent.

This folding knife was handcrafted by master knife maker Michael Walker with scrimshaw scales and engraved bolsters by his wife Patricia Walker. In the 1980s Michael Walker elevated the craft of knife making to greater heights of innovation and modernism by trademarking the Michael Walker LinerLock. Linerlock style knives had been around since the late 19th century, but Walker refined the lock by adding a leafspring which locked the blade in the open position, making the linerlock knife into a true folding knife. Throughout the years Walker would use dozens of other locking mechanisms that he had developed on his knives, and would eventually license the name and various aspects of the linerlock mechanism (including the patented safety latches developed jointly by Walker and Ron Lake) to other knifemakers and knife manufacturing companies. This Walker folding knife features a 4 1/8 inch tanto blade marked "WALKER'S LOCKERS / by / M.l. Walker" on the left side and "024 / -L" on the right. The front and rear bolsters feature a broad scroll engraving. The scrimshaw ivory scales feature multi-colored dragons (a red dragon on the left scale, a blue-green dragon on the right), with dated Patricia Walker initials ("PW 83") on both scales. Besides being Michael's wife, Patricia Walker is a professional scrimshander and engraver who specializes in surrealistic fantasy designs and wildlife scenes, and was the first artist to engrave and anodize titanium, both on her husband's knives, and on her own jewelry and artwork. The ivory scales on this knife are secured to the tang with a single rivet. OAL: 9 1/4"
