Mmmm, action has German proof Mark's, 24" barrell has "FW Heym" stamp & German proof Mark's- I believe it's a Heym through & through.
The barrell shoulder in the action has the traditional model 98 "C" rail cut. Heym has been in business over 150 years according to their website . . .
I don't recall if it's marked (as FN's are) - I will pull it to see if it's stamped. Barrell is marked as you can see and when I researched, found the "720B EHM" was attributed to Heym . . .
If anyone knows for sure, please chime in
Ummm, it was MW's main store and warehouse in Kansas City Mo - I worked for MW about a year before moving on . . . I really, really wanted one but couldn't afford it . . .
Used to see the Heym 308s and FN 270/30.06s Western Fields rifles often, usually beat up - not so much now in any condition.
Yes, you are correct. I worked at MW, KCMO in the sporting goods dept back in the mid 60's and remember seeing this specific model rifle in 308 only - the 270 and 30.06 were FN Supreme actions . . .

My "trophy" from a hunt that lasted for many, many years. I bought it new in August 1969 - first date with my wife in May 1970 - tracked it down and bought it back (needing a complete "nut & bolt" restoration) in August 2009 . . .
Restoration completed in June 2011, as it was the day I bought...

Haven't hunted for many years other than doves and a few old cars. Archery in the back yard- still punch paper and clays with the kids and grandkids from time to time and an occasional dove hunt . . .
Hello D.M.V.,
Came across an old thread about a Montgomery Ward .308 (Heym) and your comment about it. Just an FYI, I have one I plan to sell that's in nice condition in case you still have an interest.
Just let me know . . .
Kind regards,
RogerED
