weird Diana 46 stutzen help

[hwtyger]

Well, I've found the markings. They're VERY vague. With a light they are hardly recogniseable.
Cant really tell what it says. Lóóks like 43 but that cant be. Must be 46.
Does a Stutzen have its own model on it? Like '46 stutzen' or 46ST?
Dont think it has been reblued though. It actually should háve a reblue

Do all model 46 have the holes in the plastic foresight? Or stutzen only?

There is a Model 430 Stutxen but that is a sliding breech model (I think!) but then, If the digits aren't prope4rly formed, A 6 could look like a 3

Googling images for all the various Diana Stutzen models, It seems like they all have the screws at the forend!

Maybe some stockmaker or carpenter thought to improve the original design and you have a one off stock!

We're making progress! I saw something 'written'inside the stock. And it máy have had stockholes in the past. They may have been filled from the inside allthough on the outside, nothing is visible:

Found out that the text in the stock is hungarian. So must be a hungarian gunstock maker.

Well, he's done a very professional job (and used a router for the inletting).
