Description
**C&R FFL OK**
THIS RIFLE STARTED OUT AS A MLE.1907-15 INFANTRY RIFLE. IN 1948 IT WAS CONVERTED TO A FORESTRY CARBINE IN TURKEY. THE NOSECAP IS FROM A MAUSER CARBINE, AS IS THE HANDGUARD. A RECEIVER EXTENSION WAS SLEEVED OVER THE BARREL TO ACCEPT THE REAR END OF THE HANDGUARD. THE BARREL BAND SPRINGS WERE RE-USED, BUT MODIFIED TO HOLD THE MAUSER MIDDLE BAND AND NOSECAP. THE TURKS FORCE-MATCHED THE BOLT TO THE RECEIVER, ALL OTHER PARTS ARE TYPICALLY A COMPLETE MIX OF MISMATCHED FRENCH PARTS.
