That one is a puzzle. This is the only information I have but only infers that the carbines were marked.

I will keep looking but don't hold your breath.

I appreciate the effort...I can find no other information pertaining to or any other photos of this rifle....Thanks
According to my reference, Egypt in the early 50's placed a order to FN for military rifles. Most were FN 49's as shown in this photo. The bolt actions you are inquiring about? Are virtuality unknown. I personally have never heard of or seen one?
Exactly my problem...Looks like this 49 is post King Farouk by the slight variation to the crest. Thanks, Scott
