Anyone know what this is?

It appears to be a Belgium FN Mauser action. The stock is definately a custom of some sort. Receiver is marked "Crown Guns Lynwood Calif"

Barrel is only marked with 300 H&H and trigger says "Jaeger".

Really just looking for some history info. Also has a compass built into the rear of the stock. Craftsmanship is amazing.

I LOVE IT! I bought dad and old pre 64 Winchester in 30-06 for his birthday this year. This was my birthday present. Always wanted a Mannlicher style rifle.

It looks dangerous and should be given away immediately......to me!

That is beautiful!

Wow

A keeper. Definitely would make my dad jealous.

Find out how it shoots this weekend. Always read that Mannlicher style stocks aren't known for being tack drivers. This one is free floated the entire length.

Is that a VZ24 action?

Where did you find that??

The fiddleback is so prominent on the left side. That's probably my favorite stock that I've seen

I have no idea....the receiver is stamped Belgium 1951 or something or the other. Up underneath.

I bought my Dad a pre 64 Winny in 30-06 for his birthday. This is what I got for my almost birthday. I think it came from a dealer in Washington State.

Beautiful wood work on a fine piece of wood.

It sure looks like the CZ VZ24 action. They had a sort of dip in the action in front of the bolt release, and I can't see that in the pictures. No matter what it is, I love it.

I was thinking it was a pre-Sako FN action. Didn't know CZ was around that long?
