Hi I several questions about my M96 Swedishicon Mauser 1909 . My questions are for the experts on import marks and what was done to the rifle while in the importers care. As you know Century Arms has a questionable reputation but I will not get into that now. My question is my rifle has the CAI import markings on the barrel toward the sights along with the model make and cartridge size. The rifle itself is in great shape almost all matching numbers including the stock and handguard. The question problem is when I took the rifle apart and Lord old Carl Gustav would role over in his grave . The CAI people I believe placed a new barrel on the rifle, and the job is sloppy looking , also they soldered on the rear sight assembly I can see trickles of solder . Any input as to if CAI used OEM Swedish barrels or American made replacements ? Any info would be helpful.
