FN-49s at the Puyallup show?

Thu Mar 22, 2018 2:11 pm

So I haven't been to the Puyallup show in probably 20 years, but I plan to head down there on Saturday afternoon to have a look around, and keep kicking the bushes for a particular short list of FN-49s. Maybe take the temperature of the K43/G43 market.

Have you guys seen many of either at recent shows?

I suppose I am not surprised on the FN-49s. It seems that most of them have migrated to GunBroker. Still, it will be fun to look around.

New to the forum but is this the arms collector show where you need a membership to shop ?

You do not need a membership to "shop" or buy firearm accessories or ammo.
You do however need a membership to buy a firearm.
So if you see a gun you like. You buy a membership. If you don't find the gun you like.
You don't not have to buy a membership.

I’m at the show right now, and there is an Egyptian FN-49 (8mm Mauser) for $695.

Century aftermarket stock? If not, that's a good deal.

I didn’t look that closely at it, sorry.

Thanks guys!

Hope to make it down there after lunch. I am all set for Egyptian s, both Centurized and original, but I am still cruising for a Colombian and a Century Eagle. Plus you never know what other weird stuff you might stumble over!

Also, anyone looking to dip their toes in the FN-49 pool should go look at that gun. $695 for an Egyptian is legit in my opinion, even for a re-stock if it's really in Cherry shape.

I can't remember if mine's Egyptian or not I want to say it's not but I think I paid 4 at a wac show a couple years ago
