Good day all,
I'm a "new guy" here on this wonderful site and am glad to be a member, should I make a few protocol mistakes please forgive and educate me that I may not repeat the error.
I have recently acquired a Swede Carbine that is in really nice shape, it is a CG, however it is missing the top wood hand guard and I am in desperate need of a replacement. If any of you out there can offer me any assistance I would be forever in your debt. Thank you in advance

Check the various entries and photo montages in the Sweden - Milsurp Knowledge Library (click here)
Pics sure would help us a lot .. ;)
Anyway, does it look like this?
1899 M38B (M96/38) Swedish Mauser Short Rifle (Mfg by Carl Gustafs Stads Gevarsfaktori) ..... (click here)
... or this?
1907 m94/14 Swedish Carbine (Mfg by Carl Gustafs Stads Gevarsfaktori) ..... (click here)
The M96/38 has a 23" barrel, whereas the m94/14 has roughly a 17" barrel.
Post pics, or if you don't know how, email them to me and I'll post them for you. :)
Regards,
Badger
Badger...Thanks for the quick reply re my new Swede and my search for the upper wood. I believe it to be a m94-14, based on it's overall length which is 37" and the BBL is 17".
The receiver is stamped with an import mark of "Interarmco 33/50 "
the left side of the receiver is stamped with the inspector "HK" and the S/N is 103xxx.
Thanks in avance
and I love this site

Finding that wood may be a challenge ...
If you post a WTB (Want to Buy) ad for it, use a pic from the MKL entry to show potential sellers what you're looking for... ;)

Carbine handguards are easier to find than stocks. I think Sarco in New Jersey may still have some but I'm not sure.
Due to competition from other collectors the m/94 carbine can be one of the most difficult and expensive to "restore".
