MILITARY RIFLES
ARGENTINE Model FN-49 Saive semiautomatic rifle # 0524 (7.62x51 NATO) mfg. by Fabrique Nationale in 1954 for the Argentine Navy (ARA).

All-matching serial numbers, Argentine crest on receiver is clear and filled with black paint ("stoving"). Includes FOUR detachable 20-round magazines.

COLOMBIAN Model 1950 Mauser bolt-action carbine # 246 (7.62x51 NATO) made by Fabrique National. Excellent condition, with 95% or better bluing on all metal parts and very little apparent wear. Has no receiver markings and a very bright and strong bore. Matching bolt (no other parts are numbered on these), walnut stock & handguard has original finish with some handling marks.
