Default Israeli Mauser 98 - made in Belgium

A change of pace for me. I usually post about handguns, but I do have a few rifles and shotguns as well. This is one of my favorites. Belgian made Mauser 98. My father purchased this in 1987 - shortly after the Federal government started to allow importation of milsurp again. This is one of the Israeli Mausers that they converted to 7.62 mm. He purchased a nicer stock for it though he kept the original. Dad passed away a couple of years ago and his collection came to me. I've always enjoyed the "Israeli Mauser" (what he and I called it from the start) since he purchased it. I don't care about collector's value. I'm keeping it. It's one of my favorites.
