1932 VKT M27
This VKT showed up Monday and by the end of the week another VKT showed up, a M39.
I'll keep them separate and post the M27 here.
Took it apart to inspect it and it was still covered in grease but there were signs of rust so I cleaned and lubed it.
Its in great shape, still has its wings and the bolt and trigger are like butter, so smooth.
Not sure what this mark is on the barrel shank.
Antique receiver.
Connector bar has numbers but don't match the rifle.
Its wings.
Stock maker stamp.
shimmed stock.
A few marks in the stock but no cracks.
Sights.
Made with just about every arsenal marked part.
Updated with popsicle sticks.
It has a m39 trigger.
Two together.
Now to find a 1936 VKT M37.

Looks good.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Very nice! Beautiful rifles....
Alexander Hamilton, Federalist Papers #29: ...if circumstances should at any time oblige the government to form an army of any magnitude that army can never be formidable to the liberties of the people while there is a large body of citizens, little, if at all, inferior to them in discipline and the use of arms, who stand ready to defend their own rights and those of their fellow-citizens.

"Igitur qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum." -Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus
Murphy was an optimist.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an
invasion, butcher a hog, design a building, conn a ship, write a
sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the
dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve an
equation, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a
computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.
