Hello again GGCA Forum!
I recently posted about a 7x57 RwE rifle and got much good feedback, I thought I'd try again with this one: an O(tto?) Geyger 7x64 rifle:

(More pictures to follow.)
Again, what I think I know:
- Rifle believed to be 1920’s vintage by comparison to others.
- Scope believed to be 4x26 and late 1930's (based on serial number and this post: http://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...d.php?t=711308)
What I would like to know:
- Any information about narrowing the date of manufacture better.
- How to adjust the scope up/down, left/right (other than just experimenting).
- How to remove the stock: one of the two main bolts is closely covered by the trigger guard not allowing for screw driver access (does this require a special tool?). (See picture below.)
- Any other pertinent information people want to volunteer.
Thanks in advance!
