I posted on here the other day about how my brother gave me his Savage model 99 rifle.
Well, I was talking to my grandmother about it and apparently she did not know I was a firearms enthusiast. When she found this out she asked me if I wanted my grandfather's old rifle, he passed away. I told her that I would love to take it but I am not sure what type of rifle it is.
After all the info you guys gave me on the Savage I thought maybe you could help me out on this one.
It is a bolt action 30-06. On the left side of the bolt in the blueing it says "FAB.NAT.D'ARMES DE GUERRE HERSTAL-BELGIQUE"
There are some other marking farther up on the same side. One mark is of an "x" then there is what appears to be a crown over an R. Then there is another mark that I can't decipher followed by a final marking of a crown with a large circle under it and in that circle there is E

I know that pictures would be better but I don't have a camera. Sorry. Is this some kind of mauser? It has an increndibly ancient scope on it, if you can call it that, and mounts the likes of which I have never seen.
Oh, and it appears to have a removable magazine plate.
Thanks for any forthcoming information.
