Swedish M41B

Hi I'm new to the site, and I am thinking about purchasing Swedish Mauser M41B (if I can find one) I started looking for information on line, one thing I found was scope windage adjustments using base screws, it sounds a little tedious, also what are the chances on something this old the adjustment screws might not be rusted tight? Where would be a place to start looking for this rifle? thanks Bob

Welcome to the site Bob .. :)

Check the MKL under the Sweden - Milsurps Knowledge Library for detailed articles and extensive photo montages on all three versions of the m/41 sniper rifles. :thup:

1916 Swedish m/41 Sniper Rifle c/w AGA 3x65 m/44 Scope

1899 Swedish m/41 Sniper Rifle c/w AGA 3x65 m/42 Scope

1908 Swedish m/41B Sniper Rifle c/w Ajack 4x90 1942b Scope

Er, ummm, sorry to be picky and all that Doug, but surely this topic would be better placed on the Mauser forum?

And Pahoghunter, go carefully. There are some dodgy M41Bs around. A friend at my club bought one. It seems to be genuine enough - and a poor shooter, which is unusual for a Swede. I suspect that these rifles may have had many more bullets shot through their barrels than the typical serviceman's rifle.
