Good day everyone,
I would like to have some info about a rifle that is being given to me as a gift for favor rendered over a period of 6 years.
I do not have it in my possession as of yet as I just learned a few days ago about the deal. Will do the transfer this coming Monday.
I have seen the rifle once in the past when I visited the person. I just happened to see this rifle in mint condition in a cabinet, I handled it for a second and offered to buy it, but he wouldn't let me, so I didn't pay much attention to the rest of the stuff on it.
It's a Browning Standard in 7mm Rem Mag. It was bought in the early 70's and was used twice. It has 5 shots through it and he still has the original box of Remington ammo less 5 rounds.
It says on it '' Fabriqué en Belgique'' and has the FN(Fabrique Nationale) stamped also.
I did a bit of research on the net, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of info about this rifle out there, hence the reason I'm here.
If you need more, I will email my friend and ask him the details needed.
In the meantime, here are 2 pics he sent me.

For those of you who knows this rifle, your input would be welcomed.
Thanks for taking the time, it's well appreciated.
