Hi Fellas,

Just picked up a Lux FN49 that I traded 3 SKSs for. It's in decent shape and on the rack with an SVT, 7mm Venezuelan FN49, 8mm Egyptian FN, and a Winchester Garand. I'm a happy camper. PAX

Nice! I love FN49s and the Luxembourg contract in .30-06 is the best of the "commonly" available versions.

I'll share the same comment here that I shared on the other boards you posted this on;

That's a nice rack you got there PAX :P rofl rofl

Thanks Guys,

These main battle rifles represent the epitome of my meager collection. The Lux wiped out the remaining barter fodder in my SKS heap, so I need to take a break with further liquidations, but they're getting crazy money for SKSs.

I'm going to head in a different direction with my "turnovers" if I can make it happen, flying machines ferried to Alaska  thumb1 PAX

I got to fondle a beautiful Venezuelan FN49 this weekend.
A stunning example. Near mint condition, but at $1300, it was a little out of my reach.
