Re: Mauser FR8

There is an American company making tactical style stocks for 8x57 Mauser M98s with detachable magazines. I have to find them again I keep forgetting their name. Posted already about them on NE.
I asked them to get interested in doing the same for M38 and m96 6.5x55s. They said they might oneday.
I was also interested in my M98 Colombian Mauser in .30-06. They said it should work with the 8x57 setup. Should and will are not the same to me!
A bunch of years ago, maybe 10, from tradeexcanada I bought the bottom metal and box magazine to replace the floor plate and magazine on a typical 98 military Mauser action.
Not sure what I did with them but think I might have sold them to a local gun smith. I do not have the memory of that, however. I do know, that I no longer have those items.
