Colombia. A neat country to visit. My wife is Colombian; I have several guns that are from Colombia. One of them is the Madsen (Danish Gun Maker) M-47. Reportedly the last bolt action military rifle purchased; Colombia bought a batch of them, never even issued them before they went on the surplus market. There are two types out there; one batch has an enameled disc in the stock, mine is from the other group - no disc.
Chambered in .30-06, aka .30 US they have a five round internal magazine. They are a good looking gun.
