Rigbymauser,
I wish it was mine, unfortunately it is not. Absolutely, a damn good looking rifle built on a ZG-47 action.

Mehul,
It's a fantastic rifle. Yes, rifle got three crossbolts. Not much left of the original ZG-47, just the receiver. Ottmar replaced the bolt, bolt release, shroud and floorplate from an Argentinean. I wish I had more and better close up pictures of this rifle.
