Mystery FN Mauser Carbine
Mystery FN Mauser Carbine
I found this one last year. It is marked Alep and N Baronian and dated 1953 under the butt. The bolt, stock and receiver are matching possibly force matched and there is a Century import mark on barrel. It is an 8mm and similar to the Dutch Police 1948 but it bears different proof marks. It also has a single broach cut making it a Model 1930 rather than Model 1950. I could only find one other like it on the net and no mention in Balls Mauser book. An interesting gun overall.

That is SWEET.
“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
C. S. Lewis
