    Yugo M 48 - What is this?



    I've watched several Youtubes on this M 48 Mauser. I have one I bought in the 80's and it doesn't identify with the ones I've seen.

    Here are some descriptions of mine;

    1. There doesn't appear to be a production #
    2. Butt plate is a cup type. The stock under the butt has a bolt take down hole but the butt has no drilled hole.
    3. The follower has a bolt stop for the last shot.
    4. Left side shows "Mod 98"? Is this a FN or German mauser?
    5. Has a Yugo crest but no M48, M48A, M48B... stamp.
    6. Laminate stock
    7. Round bolt knob, not a half moon one.
    8. Stock cut out for bolt handle.
    9. Hand guard stops at rear site, just like a K98icon
    10. No stock serial#.
    11. Milled floor plate without a stamped#.
    12. Import marks show :Yugoslaviaicon M-4 (no 8) and the importer's stamp.
    13. 8 mm mauser which I have fired.

    What do I have here?

    Thanks,
    Mike
