Barrel length...
The barrel is 20" long and FN left the stripper clip guide in the receiver, so I can use my Kar 98 clips to load .30-06 ammunition into it.
From what little I've found on the internet, the Kodiak Arms Co. purchased FN Mauser receivers in bulk, barreled them in .243, .30-06, .270, and .308 Norma Magnum and sold them as sporting rifles. The company was around from 1963-68 and was put out of business by the Gun Control Act of 1968 that stopped the supply of parts from FN Herstal.
