Hello, long time listener, first time calling in.

I have owned a few hunting rifles in my day but very few worthy of this board, and most of my hunting has been done in Northern BC about a far from Africa as one can get.

I recently sold some scopes and a shotgun and bought this Mannlicher Schoenauer 1952 in 270 win

A few questions:

I thought these had blued bolts swept back and were the last generation with a blued bolt? I guess not

Is the light coloured (Rosewood?) tip a factory option?
