I had MAS49/56 in .308 and when it worked it was great, but usually it didn't, so I had to find an original one. Awhile back I purchased a MAS49/56 complete with with all the accessories, including a scope. It works great and I immediately liked it but it was very expensive. A local guy was selling one locally for very cheap so I picked it up today. Here is a few pictures of them. They are both in the G serial range but not close to each other. The one with the scope I have fired a few times and I have hit steel targets out to 600 yards with great consistency.
