Product Details
A SCARCE .177 WALTHER LG51 (53'Z') BREAK-BARREL MATCH AIR-RIFLE, serial no. 026654,
circa 1960, with blued 17 3/4in. barrel, tunnel fore-sight with removable element, provision for rear-sight at breech (not supplied), plain air-chamber marked 'WALTHER LG CAL 4.5' over 'MOD 51' and 'WALTHER'S PATENT', no provision for telescopic sight, figured walnut half-stock, the top of wrist fitted with a Walther peep-sight with large pan-head aperture, chequered pistol-grip, deep fore-end with finger grooves, much apparent original finish
Provenance: This rifle is somewhat of an enigma in that the Model 51 was not produced in this guise with a walnut stock and only the 'Z' model had a rifled barrel. This particular rifle conforms more to the '53'Z'' version. It is possibly a transitional model between the two versions
