Guys: I have a Belgian Mle 1935. It needs a correct bolt. I am assuming that the Mle 35 used a straight 98 bolt, and not a bent or 98k style of bolt. When this gun arrives I will post pix..

Hi Dale,
Yes, you will need a standard length, straight handle, Liege-proofed bolt, in the white. I wish I have a spare bolt in my stash of 40 extra bolts, but I don't think there is not a single bolt of this type there...although I'll check.

BTW, it is an FN or MAE rifle? I should have asked this first. If it's MAE, they simply repurposed captured Gewehr 98 bolts and receivers. You could use a good Gew 98 bolt if you have an MAE rifle.
Regards,
John
