This Model 50 is in good used condition with the bluing at 75%, the stock is in good condition with the exception of a few nicks here and there. Please see all photos! Model 50 rifles feature a proper 98 Mauser type action made by FN for the commercial market. Bolts feature dual, opposing locking lugs up front and the famous full-length, nonrotating claw extractor. The bolt handle is bent and profiled to be compatible with a riflescope. And the scope-compatible, wing-type safety on the bolt shroud blocks the firing pin from falling. The magazine is a double-stack, fixed box type, and it holds five rounds. The magazine floorplate features a pushbutton release, and the complete floorplate, follower, and follower spring assembly rotates downward and drops into the palm of a hand when the button is pressed. Model 50 rifles were built in Belgium, by super-supplier Fabrique Nationale—the same company that made many of John Browning’s early designs. Although labeled and sold for a blue-collar demographic, this J.C. Higgins rifle features some very high-end components. For starters, the rifle’s action is a genuine commercial Mauser 98 type, built by craftsmen well versed in the design. The barrel was made by High Standard and is chrome lined. As you can see in the photo, the Model 50 also had a nice stock of dense walnut. And it was properly laid out so the grain runs straight and strong through the wrist area behind the action.
