George Gibbs made them although whether they held stock prior
to WW11 I can't say.

I believe most were built on the Magnum Mauser action.

A company called "Surrey ???" also made some in 505 Gibbs
but I'm not too sure what action.

I know of 4 Original George Gibbs Magnum Mauser 505 Gibbs
rifles and that is all I have ever seen or found - not that I've looked
too hard - but I believe only about 70 were made pre WWII.
