I don't see any unfinished woodwork on the rifle. Its has been worked on by someone, as noted by the filled dovetail slot in the barrel?, and the addition of the Redfield Sight. I don't see a ramrod, but would not expect to see one on a target rifle. Separate "Range Rods" were, and are used with these guns. Its possible that the rods have been separated from this gun before it came into your possession- that is not uncommon when a gun is sold in an estate sale, for instance, or by anyone who was not the shooter of the gun.
I think you need a short starter made to be used with that false muzzle, and probably 2 range rods, to hole a couple of different jags. Because of the vintage of the gun I would want " doorknob" handles on the rods, made of either dark walnut, or ebony. They would be shaped more like a " top ", than a doorknob is today.
These guns were not often made to shoot just RB. Do you have any idea of the actual caliber, and rate of twist and depth of the rifling??? If its a conical barrel gun, you will need some help finding the correct sized bullet mold for the gun. That is another thing that commonly gets separated from these guns when they are sold by someone other than the shooter.
There is always an interest in Schuetzen rifles, so this gun even in this condition will be of interest to lots of shooters. A lot of these guns were " liberated" after WWII, by allied soldiers who seized such guns from civilians.
There were general orders about disarming the conquered populations in the early days after Germany's Surrender( along with Austria), but the GIs took everything, even when they had no idea what the gun was, or how it worked. Many were shipped home to America as war Souvenirs.
I doubt this gun went through this route, or the false muzzle might not have been around. However, it may be that the false muzzle is also a late addition, along with the peep sight. The lack of pin holes in the front of the barrel suggests that the false muzzle here was made for the gun originally. That front sight is an addition to match the Redfield target sight.
I suspect the original rear sight was an open sight on the barrel, and the peep sight was added to get better sight radius to the gun, and make it more accurate. What the original front sight look like is anyone's guess. There is that odd turn screw base on the tang that could only be for mounting a post tang peep sight. I suppose that is long gone, too. Its the missing parts that make me wonder if this wasn't a liberated WWII trophy.
A very interesting gun, and fun to see. Thank you for sharing the pictures with us here. :hatsoff:
