Hey all_ My brother in law has a barrelled action that he inherited. It's in a box marked "Flaig" with a Pennsylvania address. The receiver is marked "FN Belgium" with "Douglas Premium" and ".270 Winchester" on the barrel. I'm guessing it's a Mauser action but I'm not sure. He'd like to find a stock for it. His father ordered it in the early 60's and never stocked it. Can anyone help with further information about it's history? Thanks, Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | ||

If it's a heavier barrel I would pick up an M82 stock from Old Western Scrounger for it. I'm in the reverse situation, have the stock and bits, no barreled action. | |||
