I bought something that I honestly have no clue what it is. All I know it is a 6.5 Swede. Everything appears original and the sight is numbered to the gun and is all written in Swedish. My camera literally just blew up on me so these are the only horrible pics I have. It is a 1943 Husquvarna and I got it for 375 with 2 boxes of Privi Ammo. Anybody who knows what the hell this thing please let me know what I got.

 

I don't have a clue on history but I will say that it's a really neat rifle to add to your collection!

 

Start googling it...you'll find some info on it I'm sure.

I'm no expert, but I've seen a few. I can say I've never seen a "pistol grip" like the one you have!

Some linky for you bro:

THANKS DANNO!

Awesome. The Swedes like to Bubba their guns as much as we do!

 

And that's not a bad thing.

Eric,

 

that is not your average "Bubba" gun. The Swedes had a program similar to CMP where civilians could obtain mausers for marksmanship competition. I think they took the competitions very seriously and the converted guns are extremely well done! If the bore is good, I wouldn't be surprised if that is one of the most accurate rifles you will ever shoot! I have occasionally seen similar rifles for sale, and at prices above what you paid. I would say you have done well.

Nice, I am in the process of cleaning it now, and I have a new camera. Hopefully I will have some nice pics of it soon. And who says sarco has no good deals.....
