I need a steel floor plate, magazine spring, and follower for an FN commercial 98 Mauser as shown in the pics. This is the one that would fit a JC Higgins Model 50 or 51, FN Deluxe, Husqvarna 640, etc. They're going on a beater that's just gonna get more beat so condition doesn't really matter. Follower must be for 30-06/270, etc.

Anybody got 'em?

Thanks,

Can't help directly, but hate to see a Thread go zero responses. Suggest you spread your enquiry to different Forums, "WTB" listings.
Simply a suggestion!
Good luck!

You need one of these ......

I put one on my JC Higgins FN-98
That Argentine bottom metal has an inside length that is too short for the .270/.30-06. The front of the mag box will stop well short of the feed ramp.

I did not know that ..... I used mine for a 7x57 so didn't find out the hard way.

Worked out well for you.

They can be altered to be of proper length for an '06.
Thanks to all who replied. I pinged Duane Wiebe in hopes that he'd have something lying around.

He did.
