Century never imported MAS 36 rifles in .308. They imported them in 7.5x54 and converted them to .308. I had to six the forearm and handguard on mine because they cut off the forearm locking lug when they shortened the forearm.

The MAS action isn't considered especially strong, I'd approach the project with caution.
