Saw a rifle on the weekend that was unusual. It was a J.P SAUER S147 marked 1936. The action and bolt were all matching but the floorplate and trigger guard were not(no serial numbers on floorplate but a tiny UN) matching. The stock was bubba'd but looked like the original walnut, flat butt military issue, cut off like a sporter at the forend and rounded off. A real shame. However the barrel was a bull barrel .30 cal marked Schultz and Larsen on the bottom of the barrel a full 28 inches long, no calibre marking anywhere but a .308 round chambers and ejects nicely, .30/06 will not at all. Any of you guys ever seen a barrel like this?

Schultz and Larson barrel sounds like a Danish target rifle, especially if it has no handguard or handguard ring on the receiver (Mauser rifles of the world pages 127-128).
I have the Norwegian version built on a bnz 42 rifle to M59 specs. Kongsberg heavy barrel and busk diopter. All matching but is missing the handguard.

It's set up similar to the lower rifle minus the open sights. Unfortunately the receiver is drilled and tapped for a scope.
It's kinda already ruined, might be interesting to stick some glass on it and see how it shoots.
