HELLO,
My first post and I need some help identifying the make of a columbian military mauser 98. I got this rifle from my Father who has dementia, however in his own list of his guns he wrote that the rifle is an F.N. converted to 30-06. I cannot find any markings on the rifle that says F.N., some parts have the marking C on them. also Famage and .30. It looks like some photos of a vz-24 that I have seen at least in the configuration of the stock. any way to tell?
