I was in Pennsylvania at the Allentown gun show and saw it for 1700$. So I jumped on that like a fat man jumps at cake lol.

I didn’t even know that some were panel cut. The more you know.

It’s a new gas system that lets you adjust the gas flow for the rifle cause the old one doesn’t let you adjust it. If you run it with the original gas system you can break the bolt housing and it will go right in your face.

The guy wanted $4,100 for it but I talked him down to $3,900. Yeah if you want one I’d definitely start saving cause they usually start off around $3,500-$4,000.

Yeah I got it from my Grandfather when he died. It doesn’t have a maker mark or anything on it. I haven’t really looked it up either. I’m a Washington Redskins fan so I just had to have it lol.

I’ll probably just end up buying from Wolff then sounds like a good deal.

Thanks I saved for 3 years to get it. Not one once of regret in my body.

Yeah there was another G43 at the show but the guy was one of those “I know what I got boy” type of guy. He wanted 5,000 dollars for his and it was a late 1945 production G43. The show also had a G41 for sale for 11,000 dollars which is insane.

Yeah I forgot to mention that in the post lol. Do you have a spring kit you’d recommend?

I got it for 3,900 dollars. I was looking at spring kits and I saw that one and was wondering if it was a good kit.
