Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
his scarce rifle is one of 1,500 spare barreled receivers manufactured for the country of Egypt by Fabrique Nationale, as imported by Century Arms in the 1960s/70s. These rifles were manufactured right at the end of the normal FN 49 production, and were intended as spare receiver and barrels to augment the original FN 49 Egyptian contract rifles before FN shut down the complete production line. All the barreled receiver and spare/repair parts were purchased and assembled by Century Arms in the 1960/70s using all these parts. Although somewhat rare they will all have a mix of parts. The unusual aspect of these rifles is that the receiver does not have the regular Crown/Egyptian Crest of King Farouk but instead has the "Eagle of Saladin". Saladin was the Great Muslim leader who united the Muslim world in the Middle East and defeated the army of King Richard the Lionhearted at the Battle of Hattin in 1187 A.D. during the First Crusade of the Holy Wars. In this battle Saladin was to amass a hugh army that besieged and recaptured the city of Jerusalem.
