I'm a little late on opening this post but, wow! That's a nice one, Jon! I own a couple of the E.German Makarov's and have always admired their finish. I can see why you're so pleased with the finish on yours! Excellent! That's the way to finish the final piece of the collection, for sure! (Not that that will be the final purchase.
) We all know how
that goes!
I had it in my mind that E. German Karabiner-S stocks had a cupped buttplate on them. What am I thinking about Jon? I know I didn't imagine that. Was it a different model? I remember some being offered for sale online but nobody could find the buttplate to match them.
