Is this an authentic A4 sniper, and if so, why isn't anybody bidding on it? Seems like a low starting price.

Barrel is not original, wrong date by almost 10 months or so. |

Blurry pics of this same rifle were uploaded to the Firearms Talk website in July 2012.
I agree with the previous poster. Not enough pics and it's definitely not "as built" original. It might be "since rebuild" original. Something just looks odd about the receiver markings. |

Mine has the 3 "X" 'd out and a 4 stamped beside of the 3. I bought mine back in 1978 or 79 at a pawn shop in Arlington. I had another one and let a buddy aggravate me into selling it to him. I don't remember if it said 03-A3 on it or if it also had the 3 "X" 'd out and restamped with a 4 or not.
I don't know when this was done or by who, but it's parkerized over the restamp. |
