Hi all I’ve recently brought a FN Mauser K98k type rifle that’s been converted to 7.62x51mm . It was advertised as a Possible Israeli converted FN rifle ( I didn’t buy it for that reason just liked the rifle )
It came with an Addley scope mount fitted so I couldn’t see the rifles markings or crest on the receiver , ( I bought it from a gun dealer that was not local and had it shipped so I didn’t inspect the rifle )
Once I got the scope mount off it came apparent it’s was not an Israeli rifle as there were no Israeli markings or indicators.
I’ve done some research and I think it’s a Chinese contract rifle pre 1937 so possibly a 1924 or 1930 pattern FN Mauser am I on the right track ?
