![]() ![]() I'm pretty sure this goes for all makers but especially since you said the rifle was a '44,it should have a rough stock.The carrier and reciever should be rough and "cast" in appearance.On an AC ,the eagle proof should be on the left side of the stock,on others there should be two on the right side.Stock number will be in fairly large numbers on the underside. ![]() I'm sure others will add or correct,but I just also took the leap so I'll help as much as possible.Of the three makers you might encounter,BCD's are the most collectable,but many say not to shoot them because of poor heat treatment issues and sabotage stories.AC's (Walthers) are the most common and then you have Duv's.The matching numbers should include the reciever, bolt carrier, stock, gas piston, bolt, firing pin, locking lugs, firing pin housing.If the guy selling the rifle knows how to dissassemble it,have him show you the internals.A sanded stock seems to be the most common "alteration" that these rifles suffered so an unsanded stock is a big plus.The stock should have a rough feel to it,kinda like a last ditch ditch Japanese T99. ![]()
