I bought a box of junk mauser parts and these were inside, i did a quick search but found nothing close, 2 look similar except for the cuts and no markings. Any ideas.thanks.

I got a supressor that looks like the bottom one in your photo on an Egyptian FN49 I bought. Can't tell if it's identical without the dimensions, but it is the same configuration. From what I've read, if it's for an FN49 it's an aftermarket product, because the Egyptians didn't use any kind of suppressor or muzzle brake on their rifles and FN did't make any in that configuration. Unless, of course, it's an original for some other weapon that was altered or just happened to fit an FN49. It ain't much, but that's what I know.

I think you have a set of aftermarket ones.

I have one very similar to the middle one on my FN49. the slots are identical and the shank is similar, the only difference is that mine is threaded instead of slotted/pinned style. I got it a few years ago from Numrich. It was listed as for a Swedish Mauser, but it has been debunked several times that the Swedes never made flash hiders. Chances are it is aftermarket, but it is well made and nicely blued.
