A buddy of mine inherited this rifle. It was made by New England Westinghouse. It is chambered in 7.62X54R.
At first glance I thought it was possibly a sporterized military rifle, like a Mosin Nagant or something but it's not.
Unusual features: no markings anywhere that it is 7.62 X 54R, and there appears to be no manual safety.
Anyone have any info?
