if you believe in coincidense the 8x60S Mas 36 No .682 was coming back in an auction and thanks to Igorrock I was able to get into my hands. its a so called "Deko" wallhanger that was drilled and welded in 2009 for whatever reasons. good for me because I will butcher it to get another orignal stock and the missing safety lever for my old 10,75x68. still waiting for the french export licence
the missing part
the cut down bolt with a 8x60 stamp
drilled and welded
No 682 made in 1947
8x60 Magnum on the barrel allmost vanished under the thick black coating
the action is surprisingly small and you dont believe that the 10,75x68 will fit into but it does very well
side by side with a M 98 in 10,75x57 you maybe get an imagination how handy the rifle is because its so small in thickness
