French magazine fed bolt-action military training rifle chambered for .22 Long Rifle, and imported by Navy Arms Co. out of Ridgefield, NJ. Designed by Mauser, and the beginning of production located in French occupied Mauser factories circa 1945. These were the standard French training rifles, and produced until the early 1970's. Rifle features a parkerized finish, an approximately 24" tapered barrel, ramped & hooded blade front sight, fully adjustable tangent rear aperture sight graduated to 150 meters, smooth curved trigger, left receiver mounted Mauser style bolt release, bolt mounted flag type three position safety, checkered trigger guard, serrated magazine release mounted by magazine well, and a turned down bolt handle. The walnut furniture consists of a smooth semi-pistol gripped shoulder stock, smooth forend, sling studs on the forend and bottom of the shoulder stock, and a smooth metal "MAS" marked butt plate. Matching numbers are marked on the receiver, bolt handle, and bolt body (5362). The original parkerized finish retained is approximately 94% with edge wear, light blemishes, and a generally thin finish. A dark dull grey appearance to the finish adds to the patina. Metal displays no rust, but there is some pin-prick pitting on the butt plate, but there was no observed deformation. The walnut furniture is in excellent condition with superficial handling marks, and a material transfer on the shoulder stock that can be removed. The action is smooth and crisp, and the three position safety works nicely. The bore is bright with strong rifling. Rifle includes one 5-round magazine total, and it is marked 'Mod. 45'.
Condition is NRA Very Good.
