It was built in 10/56 on the famous Anschütz 54 action and has a trigger pull as expected from this fine heritage. These rifles were used by the German Bundeswehr when it was formed in the early 1950s along with other quality guns, like the SIG P210/4, and soldiers where still encouraged in those days to sharpen their marksman's skills.

I have never seen a post war training rifle from Germany. With it's roots it should drive tacks. "What happened? What the HELL happened?" Jake Holman "The Sandpebbles"

Marksmanship was ever bit as much stressed as it was in the days of the Wehrmacht. In this manual, it is mentioned that shooting fast has to be practiced regularly with rimfire rifles. I guess when the military changed to the FN FAL as the G1, then to the G3, and now to the plasticky G36, the lessons learned during the war where forgotten with the newly found fire power and the combat veterans retired. I was born in Germany and remember that I was shooting such a .22 rifle in the military as a kid and when I served during the late 70s, those guns were still in the armoury but rarely ever used anymore to my knowledge. Mine has about 98% blueing left and the stock was varnished with what appears a linseed oil mix, as it had been applied to the K98k. The stock is still in much, much better condition than the wooden stocks of the early Cetme G3s that we were issued.

Seems not that rare after all but mine is in great condition and I love it, rare or not!
