And then one day you realize they snuck into and took over your safe...

Whats the commonality of components for (1) point...

Name them all for (4) more points.

Just trying to have some fun here but someone will disclose shortly Im sure.
 
Haha. All rear locking lugs.

Enfield, Steyr and 788 is correct. Any guesses on the others?

I’ll give a hint, one is smooth bore, two are not centerfire
 
All the bolts went back in and back in the safe.

Points to gun runner for the Mossberg shotgun bolt. (Top center, left of the two at top)

The one at top right should be easy enough, probably more of these old things in gunsafes around the country then any other excerpt maybe win 94’s or Enfields

The one with the green bolt handle (not a factory handle) hasn’t been determined yet, or the one on the bottom that’ is a darker color
 
Reminds me of a "situation" a decade or so ago...
- Widow need to some help to sell off her late husband' guns... who died a year or so ago... and they've since cleared the house...

You guessed it: Not one bolt to be found...

Exactly the same scenario I went though last year. Checked out the rifles, then went bolt hunting. Found one nice Anschutz bolt, but no rifle.
The feller had a picker's dream of goodies in his shops & garage. Just way too many places to pick through in half a day.

Lakefield Mk ll or Savage Mk ll?
 
Cool. M or Luxus?

It’s a Steyr model M, full stock left hand. It was in 30-06 but had Ron Smith rebore and rechamber (gain twist) to 9.3x62. A Nikon prostaff 7 in 2.5-10x50 sits atop it in the 30mm quick release rings that came on it, which pivot in a dovetail at the front and slide into and lock at the rear. The Nikon is good clear glass, but it does seem a bit out of place to the rifle. It feels like something like a Swarovski your Zeiss Diavari is meant to be perched on top. Maybe one day.

The one issue I have is the round nosed 286 grain PPU rounds catch a bit in the feed path, I plan to go to 250 NAB’s which I have and need to reload for, I just haven’t done yet. Other than that I am smitten with how it handles, cycles and looks. I’ll post a pic with the other rifles shortly.

Only one bolt left to guess as gunrunner Got another right. Lake field MK II
