The Fabrique Nationale Model 1949 (often referred to as the FN-49, SAFN) is available as semi-automatic rifle. Designed by Dieudonné Saive and manufactured by Fabrique Nationale. It was used by the military of Argentina, Belgium, the Belgian Congo, Brazil, Colombia, Egypt, Indonesia, Luxembourg, and Venezuela. While well regarded for its high build quality and reliability in comparison tothe rifles of the time, its marketability was limited, as it was not developed in time for use in World War II. This one is an Egypt contract with proper Egyptian numbering and identification marks.
The wood and metal rates 99+%, but unfortunately someone removed the rear sight and used a no drill and tap B Square scope mount. Fortunately, this means the rifle can easily be restored by addition of a rear site and spring, which I have.
Chambered in 7.92x57mm/8mm Mauser
