Help Identifying a Mauser type action

[Chris.Wood]

Hi all.
I am hoping someone can help, I would like to Identify this Mauser type action in order to hopefully source an off the shelf replacement stock.
It is currently chambered in .300WM, has very few identifying marks and I am at a bit of a loss as to its pedigree.
Any help would be appreciated.

With that slide safety, bolt shroud, and the shape of the bolt handle..I’m going to guess a zastava or one of the companies that used zastava actions over the years (whitworth, etc)…


Are there no markings on the barrel or action at all to reference other than the serial number shown in the pic?

The rear of the action appears commercial.. I dont see evidence of The stripper clip “hump” being machined down under the scope base..

If not a zastava, my next best guess would be FN… but to my knowledge FN never used a slide safety with that particular profile (theirs didn’t have the double raised profile yours does.. the FN slide was more flat IIRC)…

Thanks that's a start, I was thinking it may be a Zastava action used by someone else, hence the lack of identifying marks. The only markings are that little crown shaped stamp above the serial No and the little X on the underside of the bolt.

I strongly suspect either Interarms Whitworth or H&R. A standard action 98 Mauser stock should fit with some minor modification to allow for trigger block side safety.

Parker Hale or Santa Barbra going by the markings on front receiver ring under the tang it should be marked made in Spain, good actions same as FN & Zastava.
