Just picked this one up off of the trader on another forum. Its an 1895 Danzig 88/05 that ended up in Turkey but never got upgraded to an 88/05/35. I added the Turked Ersatz bayonet and the repro sling. Here's a few photos.

Nice rifle. I still need to add one of these to my Turk collection. I passed on one two years ago because it had been reblued and made all pretty.

Nice looking rifle! My first centerfire rifle over 35 years ago was a Turked 1894 Danzig very much like yours! Have liked them ever since.
