This ZfK55 rifle is unfired and was never issued. It only has some minor marks from storage at the support points where it was hanging for years as a wall display. It comes with a complete original parts roll, scope can and sling. Previously, it was in the personal collection of a former Director of the Waffenfabrik Bern and went directly from the production line into to his private collection. The "parts roll" is amazing. It's like a treasure hunt just going through it and seeing all of the small items they put in it, including a storage tube that has every front sight post replacement you'd ever want. If you want to see how well she shoots with a modern 24x scope, the package also comes with a modern add-on St. Marie plug-n-play replacement mount, specially designed and built for the ZfK55. The St Marie mount uses the standard weaver configuration for mounting any commercially available scope and rings.
This rifle is located in Canada and is the ONLY one currently registered in this country.
