Exceptional Clayton N. Nelson Custom Brno Arms ZG47 Bolt Action Sporting Rifle in .375 H&H

This is a Clayton N. Nelson custom sporting rifle built on a very early post-war Brno Arms Magnum rifle action. The left receiver ring is marked "ZG47" over a German Eagle/N proof marks and 57 for the year of manufacture, with "BRNO" factory markings on the side wall. The receiver has been fitted with a one-piece trigger guard with a hinged floor plate, with the quick release inside the trigger guard bow. The barrel is a custom made heavy weight sporter contour with a barrel band, ramp front sight base with beaded front sight, with a raised rear sight base with a single folding leaf rear sight. The front and rear receiver was machined for grooved for scope mounts, (not included). The top of the barrel is marked "CLAYTON N NELSON GUNMAKER". The bolt body and follower are jeweled and it has a custom bolt shroud with a side swing safety. The rifle has been stocked with a beautiful custom fancy English walnut stock with multi-point fine line checkering, a small European style cheekpiece with shadow line, ebony forend tip and grip cap, with a black unmarked solid recoil pad.

ConditionExcellent. The rifle retains nearly all of the original blue finish with a few light handling marks. The bolt shroud and safety lever are color casehardened. The stock is also excellent with a few minor handling marks and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
