Hi all, thanks so much!!! M4's looks like a carbon copy of mine (yep I bought it, for less than the asking price).

I'll post pics of the bbl marking when I get her.

Thanks again so much!!!

Knowing the quality of the pool of Ferlach mechanics along with M4's endorsement, I don't think you will be disappointed. But once again that stock length is a bit short for me.

Kind Regards,

Hello Raimey, thanks again for all the info, infact thanks everyone!! It's been an education and I appreciate it!

Odd thing is, the LOP is about right for me. My LOP on a straight stock is 14 1/4" and this one being a PG would be about right.

Thanks again!!!!

Greg

This 1934 Franz Sodia boxlock is built on a 1931 Sauer Krupp 3 Ringe tubeset:






Looks to be #538 of 1931(538.31)


Have any of you Sodia owners seen a similar Sodia mark as seen on the aft lug? Or does it have Sauer origins?


Kind Regards,

Raimey
