Re: Mauser rifles at auctions

Here is a in the white .416 Rigby working rifle built on a BREVEX 400 Magnum action.
These fine actions were made in Suresnes, France by Polonsky from mid fifties to mid sixties.
They were offered in two versions, the 300 model for .375 H&H Magnum rimless type cartridges and the 400 for the .416 Rigby and .505 Gibbs rounds.
They were the only true magnum Mauser type actions available to the trade in the years following WWII.
They are extremely tough and reliable but need much work.
