The only Milsurp rifle I've owned was an FN-49 in .30-06. It was a wonderfully accurate shooter back when I could still see iron sights. I reloaded for it and its extractor had an unfortunate habit of trying to tear the rim off of spent cases during ejection. It always removed the cases from the chamber but the cases were often too damaged to reload. | ||||||

But I don't have them to hang on the wall or bury them in the back of a safe. They are soooo fun to shoot! One example of many: Image below from Mark Freburg - Image Title: Pattern 14 ![]() |
