    Just put together a new semi auto from a barreled action I came across.
    Took me forever to find all the parts, can you guess what it is?

    Have you put any rounds through it? Nice piece of history, probably used in the last unpleasantness in the Suez?

    FN49, correct
    The top bolt action one is not a MAS36 (notice the continuous stock)
    Its a weird one, a restocked re-barreled ancient rifle used to beat back a "bear"

    Belgian customs and Gendarmerie used the FN49 for a good while if I'm not mistaken.

    This one is built on a mosin nagant receiver from 1896, was captured during the winter war of 1940 and was tuned/re-barreled/re-stocked by the Finns


    now, what do you think this is?

    its an easy rebarrel, the threads are the same on the 450/577 barrel shank and the 303.
    The extractor needs to be built up to grab the skinner cartridge and the fireing pin hole is tapped and a sleeve inserted to allow a smaller diameter pin.
