Thank you for the info and links.
The one thing that confused me most was the lack of the gas shield flange on the bolt shroud.

I have two other Haenel sporters of this type with the split bridge action, the 98 style staggered magazine and the gas flange bolt shroud.

I expected to see the latter feature here also.

FWIW anothr dealer had a military rifle in somewhat sad refinished condition made on this action as well.
It's been around the local show circut for a while. Any markings, if they were on the ring,, are long gone from refinishing. I looked it over and mentioned to the dealer about the Haenel mfg'r & Paraguay contract connection I had read about. He seemed mildly interested.
