Re: Waiting for Range session

Scott63 - An FN49 has been on my wish list for a long time... Good luck with testing and adjustments. Thanks! One was on my wish list for several years as well. Picked up this one at a local auction last year for a very fair price, about what they were going for 7-8 years ago. Beautiful restoration...

Thanks! One of my favorite surplus rifles. This one is 8mm Mauser. :)

Went completely through it last winter and replaced worn and incorrect parts. Also, a complete clean/lube/oil.

Re: Waiting for Range session

Very nice work! Love both of them!

Taking my FN49 out tomorrow for some testing and gas block adjustment. I've replaced several parts on it recently.
