I bought this rifle about 30 years ago, and apart from test firing it, I have kept it in my gun safe. I was looking under Swedishicon Mausers recently and I am puzzled. The receiver is a CG dated 1898 serial number 986. All other markings appear to suggest that the rifle was made by Husqvarna, probably between 1940 and 1944. (Note the “tilted crown markings.) I was unable to send pictures to one member of the advisory board, so the bent bolt and crown markings were not evident. His conclusion was that the rifle was an M96/38.
Can anyone clatify the issue for me?
Thanks,
