Yes I think he is Perry, go to the website mentioned in post #8 to contact him, tell him Owengun told you about it! He is not a member here.

That's my friend and his one!

I believe he told me it was number 44

This one sold last year for $218,500 USD!

North American Arms - 1911 | Rock Island Auction

A friend of mine picked this nice and excellent condition one up recently and I thought I would let people here who have never heard of or seen one, to see what they look like.

Only 100 were made...

Hi Lou,

I have a 1941 dated Lithgow Mk.III with the cutoff fitted. I also have a 1920's dated British made Mk.III with cutoff fitted.

Here are pictures of a 1929 Enfield made one -
...

Here are some nice Swedish Husqvarna M38's -
...

Since the fitting of the Lyman rear sight was already done it has lost all collector value, but as mentioned above it makes it a better shooter for most who are after one as a range rifle or hunting...

I'm guessing that you have the 23.6" barrel one and not the 17.7" barrel one right?

If it is the longer barrel one pretty much most M98 military stocks for a similar barrel length will fit with a...

Should have posted this earlier.

Thought I would post this here so others will have a chance in the future to see what one of these School Carbines looks like.

This was is extremely rare and...

You made off like a bandit on that one if it is in the condition you say, that rifle would easily go for up to $650 now in most parts of Canada. You must have bought it privately from a seller who...

That is a high original asking price for a Swedish M38 with a stock repair and threaded muzzle, $350 is not so bad if it has a nice bore and is otherwise in good shape. Most decent Swedish M38's go...

I also prefer the Swedish rifles and 6.5x55mm cartridge as well, but I also own a number of 7.65x53mm rifles (both M1891 & M1909 Argentine and Peruvian) and find my M1909 Argentine (as with the other...

Very nice as well, pity that they make you guys down south stamp import markings on those rifles, all mine are not import marked as it is not a requirement for importing firearms into Canada!

Ammo is easy to make up from .303 British cases and it shoots just like a M96 Swedish Mauser.

Thank you, I have also seen many before and none anywhere as nice as this one, it came out of a old timers collection who has moved on, I never got the story behind were it came from, it looks like...

Thanks, I was starting to think from the lack of comments and feedback that people are not interested in nice examples of unique old Military rifles.

Just thought I would post photo's of one of my unique rifles from my collection, enjoy -
...

Had my Swedish Husqvarna M38 6.5x55mm Mausers out for cleaning and thought I would share some pictures for all to enjoy.

Maybe I should make some quick coin and break my ex-sporter down and sell the individual parts and wood for double what I paid. :madsmile:

Thanks father,

Wow, He sold one last month in auction for $520 USD, not much less than what I paid for my rifle.

"Best stock set I've ever seen!! Fast o/s postage!! Thank you so much!!...

Probably genuine NOS English walnut wood then that was not stamped as accepted into service yet until it got it's final fitting. I will not be stripping mine down to find any other marks until after...

Thanks for the pictures, close but not exactly the same stamps as my posted Mk.III. Where is the crown military acceptance stamp? Does anybody know what 9/l\9 means?
...

Would it be too much to ask for a picture of these stamps on your quoted forend to confirm that they are the same? you know just so it is not only me making statements with verifiable pictures.

No problem, was I never polite (maybe not by Canadian standards)?

What did I state that is misleading or less than accurate? I thought I laid everything out as I saw it, I never asked for what it...
