My new toy:Fabrique Nationale FN Mauser 98 action .270 win
#101451 - 04/04/08 12:30 AM

Hello Everyone

Very excited about newest member of the family, I recently purchased a FN .270 rifle that I had concerns about being a salt wood stock (discussed previously in one of the threads), but after careful examination of the stock and action apart, the rifle was not one of the salties and I made the big decission and brought it. I would like to add pictures of the rifle and action on the forum and get some feedback from the experts. I never added a picture on NE forum so if someone could please guide me through the steps that would be of great help. Thanks.

Not meaning to indorse any other web site, but the only way I was able to accomplish Posting photos is by establishing an account on Photobucket.com.
They have a pathway addresses for this. There is a designated IMG Code that is copied and placed to the Post on the forum. After a number of months on the Forum, I finally figured this out just recently.

I enjoy the older FN Mauser sporters. I have one in .375 from the 1950's and a new 1970's disco stocked vesion (squared angles, white lines, montecarlo roll-over, all the stuff I don't like) in .30-06.
I have a few FN actioned '98 military carbines that are like commercial finish as well.

Hope the above helps.

Anybody know when this gun was made?

My son has one exactly like it in the same .270 caliber, except I think my son's was rebarreled at some point and definitely was epoxy bedded.
