Beautiful FN Mauser 458 win mag

The left side of the receiver says made in Belgium so it isn't an Interarms Mark X or Whitworth. I don't know about the Mark Xs, but the Whitworth's were "finished" in Manchester, England and say so on the receiver. I have three Whitworths and they also (along with Mark Xs) either have a magazine release inside the front of the trigger guard (earlier models) or a push button on the right side front of the trigger guard. Interesting rifle though at a very fair price.

The rifle has a new home in Wisconsin. A big shout-out thank you to NTO for offering such a wonderful Big Game rifle. A field test post will follow on the .375 & up Forum
 
A great rifle in a great caliber. Congratulations to the new owner.

It's always nice to see when a good weapon gets to someone who can appreciate it.

Sometimes I felt sorry for selling some of my rifles – I was worried that these guys would mistreat them.

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.
