Bigger_is_Best,

Yes, this is the Portuguese military rifle but with a replacement stock. It looks like it is in good shape. I don't plan on shooting it with anything other than US manufactured 8x57JS ammunition and my guess is that that would be safe in this rifle.

9ThreeXFifty7,

Yes, the encouragement here is pushing me to buy this rifle. Hope to talk to the seller and pick it up soon.

88MauSporter,

I didn't check if the numbers matched but I did work the bolt on the rifle and it was extremely smooth. The stock has been replaced and there is nothing, unfortunately, that I can do about it now. I guess I'll have to live with it after I buy the rifle.

Tinker,

The rifle isn;t mine yet, my friend, but I hope to make her mine soon.

My club meets on Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons and I shall pick it up and post pictures here when I have her in hand like I have always done in the past. Yes, I have no plans of hotrodding her in any way. I have a Mauser sporter which shoots Federal 197gr PSP ammo beautifully and I am going to try that in this one after I buy her. Hope to pick her up soon.

Marrakai,

Thanks for the warning about disassembly - assembly especially as I am all toes, not thumbs.

Thank you, gentlemen, for all the wonderful advice. Hope to post here with pictures very soon.

Good hunting, everyone!
