    FN M1924 Mauser carbine (Mexican contract)

    Here's a scarce one. FN M1924 Mauser carbine, Mexican contract. It has definitely been around the block. Stock has been painted black, and appears that it was done a very long time ago. Upper handguard is definitely handmade.
    I'll bet this one could tell some stories!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    Found Cyrillic markings on the bolt, and bolt release lever. Also Cyrillic markings on trigger (oval with line running vertically through it) Possible Yugoslavian 'Nish' carbine that got rerouted to the Mexican contract? Also an interesting marking on the extractor. Really curious about the black paint...its been on it a helluva long time. Even the inside of the stock is painted. I'm torn about removing it, if it's something important, I'm leaving it. Kinda like the way it looks.
