I didn't enlarge the photo. The stock looks rougher than it did just looking at the thumbnail. I'd lower the price from my previous max. Matching bolt, and bore condition will come into play as well.

The diamond mark is unusual. Do you have a better picture of that?

Ive seen info that the bka diamond is a German mark signifying deactivation. Any signs of that? Bolt messed with, hole in the chamber or barrel?

Everything I see associates the Diamond BKA marking to Frankonia Arms or Waffen Frankonia. Whether true or not, I can't say and my German is rusty to say it politely.

Got to ask, were you stationed at Rhein Main? I was there from Jul 88 to Jul 92.

Cool, in Jun 85 I was leaving out of Rhein Main from Bitburg after 3 years in HS, just to end up at Rhein Main 3 years later.

Oh, and ORION was a German Importer in the 80s.
