The book "Mauser Archive" recorded that the factory shipped some guns with "bead front sight". Could the sight (on GMA gun) be it? It's hard to tell.

=====

Now, the interesting part.

s/n 453506 (mine, not the GMA one).... "Where did this gun come from?"...... no way to tell from the gun itself, it carries no special marking. But the matching stock has a tiny stamp on it, the position and the size of the stamp is same as C/J or C/M stamp on German wartime military stocks, but I cannot tell what it is.... it's not crown. And, the stock is a true Bolo stock and the grip opening fits Bolo perfectly and is too small to fit a full grip gun.

I guess it's a German stamp (because of its unique position), not a ding or something. Camera battery charging, will post a close-up pix of this puzzled stamp.
