Many of these rifles were originally military rifles, not too many of them kept that look as far as I know, but the sporterized ones still are pretty cool looking and i'm proud to finally get my paws on one.

I got the boomerang and the gun and I now say "cunt" a lot....... Now all I need is the hat and i'm legit. xD

This particular rifle was made in 1943.

This thing has a lot of numbers and stuff on it. I'll show you the pics from my other gallery on DA....

If anyone has any answers to what most of these mean, ill be very impressed.

A previous owner also painted the front sights red, not sure it was from a Australian or American owner though, but i'm leaning towards American since I have seen other rifles in my local gun stores and pawn shops with painted sights as well. xD

I really wanna meet someone who could clean this rifle up and make it look really nice someday, it's not like it has much value anyway so I really want to pretty it up and make it like new again. = )
