The owner had success with his Model 640 on an African safari in 2010.
(The European export market was pretty dismal in 1944!) My only changes were the additions of a recoil pad and a Burris Timberline 4×20 scope in a detachable mount. It’s a plain-vanilla working rifle intended for the domestic market. The stock is a Schnabel-tipped piece of European beechwood with modest checkering but no other ornamentation beyond a plastic grip cap. The barrel is not stepped, and the rear sight is a single fixed open leaf. This rifle isn’t an ex-military weapon though it does have a stripper clip slot in the receiver bridge, it lacks the “thumb cut” in the left receiver rail typical of military rifles.
