For Sale Spanish Mauser FR-8 in 7.62x51 *SOLD*

Post by Combat Controller »

Howdy, I have decided to sell a few rifle I have never shot or have not shot for more than 3 years to make room in the safe. In this case its a somewhat rare Spanish Mauser conversion. This gun is a lot of fun and very interesting but it doesn't fit the scout role I purchased for originally. I never shoot it and it is a shame it's just sitting there in the dark. It is a large ring Mauser but the bolt had been turned down before I purchased it. An improvement I think.

$400 plus shipping.

I am fortunate enough to have an FR-8 already. A great little rifle, in a grown-up caliber.

You are doing it backwards. Not enough room in the safe means it is time for another safe...

I have an FR-8, that sucker kicks like a mule. The rear sight also gets in the way, since I shoot it left handed. Fun gun, though. I also considered it as a sort of scout/brush gun.
