AllenBoselyFN Model 1924 Yugo
I may be able to get a FN Model 1924 Yugo (not a 24 or 24/47).
It looks real clean no rust or pits. It seems very well machined and quite smooth.
Serial #s don't match though.
It would be used for a 6.55x55. with the works done to it, surface ground, polished,Sunny Hill bottom metal cut down to fit, ect.
OR, I have a line on a 1908 Brazilian DWM with matching serial #s and clean also.
For the 6.5x55 and would get the same treatment.
The 1908 is a bit long for the 6.5x55.
It will be throated for 140gn bullets.not planning on using 160s for this gun.
Recommendations and why? This is the last action I have to decide on for a good while.

I would get the better of the two actions.

HerrMesserIf that FN Model 1924 Yugo is a complete rifle those are quite rare as there was only 100,000 made and very few existing today as the M24. Occasilly you can run across M24/47 with traces of FN marking.
