    Hey there. Received some firearms from a friend to clean. I cant figure out what caliber they are, or what make and model. If you know or recognize, please tell me all that you know!! Thanks!! Here is information that i found only on the firearms

    First off:
    Bolt Action. Dont know make, model, or caliber
    "FN" and "Made in Belgium" are stamped on the receiver
    "Finland" is stamped in the trigger group
    "833" and "338" is stamped on the barrel




    Next:
    Silver Semi Auto. Dont know Make, Model, or Caliber
    "SH"
    stamped "C.G. Haenel Suhl, Germany, Schmeissers Patent"

    Fabrique Nationale Mauser action receiver?. Chambered in .338 Win Mag would be my guess for the rifle? Probably a none factory build. Nice none the less.

    C.G. Haenel Suhl, Germany pistol. My guess would be 6.35mm (25 auto) based on a quick Google search.

    Remington Rolling block. Does the 32 on the barrel indicate 32 Automatic? Found a Remington Rolling block chambered in 32 Automatic on the internet.

      Remington rolling block model 4 in .32 caliber is the last one.

          The problem with the Mauser is that the actions have been used as the basis for many custom hunting rifles. If you can try different sized cartridge case in the bolt face to see what size fits that it will narrow down the chambering options.

            so with the bolt action, not finding the make or model is ok. But I would really love to know exactly what caliber it is. I will try using empty brass and fitting it, but other than that, how do you find out what a non-marked rifle is chambered in??

              A gunsmith can do a chamber cast for you. Show us a picture of the bolt face. I have an old Arisaka rebarreled to to .257 Roberts. All that is stamped on the barrel is "257". No other designator. I know it is 257 Roberts because I was told what it was and 257R fed and fired in it.
              My guess is .338 Win Mag.

                  There should be a lever on the left side of the reciever, lift the lever and pull the bolt out.
