Great rifle... very much sought after.

The FN action is very smooth. The rifles are typically excellent shooters.

The one thing to replace is the trigger. The one they come with is inherently unsafe. Half the mechanism is attached to the receiver, and the other half is attached to the stock. Lift the action out of the stock with the bolt cocked and the rifle goes off.

I think that scope was a standard option. I got one just like it with the one I bought.

If for any reason you re-stock it, the trigger guard is 1/4" shorter than a military Mauser. You have to be careful to get the right size hole.


Be not weary in well doing.
