Re: M-S with cheek piece and double safety.

so the history of the rifle give us any possibility!

I believe the safety is made in england simlpy because of the word"safe". looks english to me.
the scope mount seems to be a mannlicher schoenauer claw mount in the first view but the lever on the rear base is very unusual. such levers are typical for different british scope mounts maybe this was their taste. one the other hand the soldered half rings on the scope and the claw mount feets are german as possible.

to find out if the scope is post or pre world war 2 we need a specialist. sometimes the difference between is very small. have a britisch made mannlicher in 375 NE with a Ajack 4x90 that was sold as an old WW 2 military sniper scope.







anyway I did not by the rifle for the scope and a little research was showing the truth. post and pre war scopes of this model are completly the same only the inscription "Ajack 4x90" on the scope is different. please compare with this pre war made scope here
