Juliana of the Netherlands F.N. Mauser Carbine

Juliana of the Netherlands Carbine

After WW2 the Dutch adopted an FN Mauser Carbine in 8mm for the police.. The top of the recievers were first marked with a crown 'W' for Queen Wilhelmina (Reign 1890-1948), when Juliana became Queen (reign 1948-1980) the crest on new produced carbines changed to a Crown 'J'.. Enjoy this Queen Juliana (House of Orange) Dutch Mauser Police Carbine... BILL
