FN 98 Deluxe 6mm Remington Rifle
This is a beautiful excellent condition custom built target rifle. It was built on an early FN Deluxe 98 Mauser action. Immediately after WW2 FN began producing Mauser 98 complete rifles and actions for sale. Initially the rifles and actions built were of standard 98 military pattern using a low scope safety mounted on the rear of the bolt. Between 1947 & 1949 FN switched to a trigger sliding safety mounted on the right rear of the receiver and with a different low profile bolt sleeve. These were produced until 1963. An individual could purchase a complete rifle or just an action either blued or in the white. Since this was prior to the US 1968 gun act serial numbers were not required on receivers. An individual could purchase either a rifle or action by mail without any paperwork or back ground check. Completed rifles were serial numbered by the factory. Actions could be purchased with or without a serial number as the buyer wished. This rifle was built on an action without serial number. To be sure prior to this sale a gunsmith removed it from the stock and checked to see that no number had been removed. It simply never had one. Since it was built before 1968 it is legal to own without one. Who built this rifle is unknown. That he was a gunsmith of rare skill is evident from the rifle. The metal has excellent uniform high polish blue and the stock design is excellent. Wood to metal fit is excellent, as good as anything that might have come out of the Winchester custom shop. The rifle is in excellent condition with about 99% original blue. It shows only one spot of damaged finish on the floor plate about the size of a nickel. The floor plate is a button open hinged design. As noted the action has a side mounted safety on the receiver. It has a single stage fully adjustable trigger. Presently it is set to give a light pull with very crisp break. Flecker style target scope blocks are mounted on the receiver and 26.5 inch barrel. The follower, extractor and bolt dismount all show a jeweled appearance. Both the mechanical condition of the rifle and the rifled barrel are in excellent condition. The barrel has excellent crisp rifling and is not marked or pitted. It is completed with a wood laminated right hand thumb hole stock. The stock is beautiful and in excellent condition. The elderly gentleman who owned it obviously though well of the rifle. When it came in there was a near mint condition 20 power Unertl target scope mounted on it. That scope is listed later in the auction. NOTE TO ANY BUYER. Please check with whatever dealer will be receiving the rifle if you win the bid. Many dealers who specialize in new post 1968 arms may not understand the rules regarding the lack of serial numbers on an FN high power rifle.
