FR8's are based on the Mauser 98 action. I expect you can use a 98 bolt. When I needed a extractor for my FR8 I used a 98 part which is identical.

If its a FR-8 bolt you're looking for you can use a Spanish M43 8mm mauser bolt...they're the same.

Speaking of FR8s, does anybody know where I can get a complete stock for one? I have a nice rifle but some bubba refinished it in a high gloss finish and I despise it.

Thanks

I would strip it and put a nice oil finish on it, although the originals had a bit of a glossy finish to begin with.

Try using some CitriStip on that stock, it may surprise you.
