Gah! Mangled BCD!
What ever could have been the reason for the second recoil lug hole? I feel like I have seen another one like this here in the last couple months.
Learn something every day. No wonder I have seen this more than once. Thank you
Yes, Darrin Weaver would not believe me about the recoil lug change of location, until I took an early and late Walther to him. Hitler's Garands, lower right, page 144......

You schooled Darrin Weaver on G43's?
I am not worthy.
There was a time when Darrin was a lowly young Captain / Phy. Asst. in the army. He became obsessed with the G 43 rifle. He then decided to become the G43 expert, and write the book. At the time we lived a couple of miles apart and I owned 15 G/K 43 types. Darrin spent hours going over the guns, doing research and contacting other collectors. That was a long time ago and he did become very knowledgeable. Indeed FAR more knowledgeable than I ever pretended to be. I also have to admit introducing Mike Steves to the mystery of 98k collecting, look what that led to......
