Chooped up Spanish Mauser from my best guess.

More pictures of the reciever would be nice.

Closeup top of the receiver pic would help.

That was my gut instinct as well... might be a 7mm

[knucklehead0202]

something like that, looks like a small-ring 98 action so likely 7mm and south-American of some persuasion. top of receiver would really help.

[Noonanda]

its either 7mm or 8mm, spanish by the look

['ol shooter]

If it were mine, I'd cast the chamber and slug the barrel to get an accurate idea of what I had.

Didn't they all so convert some of the spanish to 308.

Thanks for the response guys. I'll post a couple more pictures today my buddy found this in his dads house.

Yes they did. The FR-7 and FR-8. It is possible that is what the pics are of. Better pics of the receiver would be of greater help.

Spanish it seems to me.

Spanish 1916, most likely a 7mm.

He said his dad once shot a 308 out of it. Is this possible?

Well TRAP forgot to mention is that many of those rifles were converted to 7.62 NATO after WW2.

So chances are that is a converter.
