  • Description:

    SN 695807 is an excellent plus variation of the Swedish M 96 Mauser rifle in 6.5 X55. This rifle appears to be one of the 1943 rifles as built by Husqvarna for the Fnvilliga Skytte Rolsen and not the Swedish military .  This rifle shows a bright excellent blue on the receiver with a matching bolt .  All of the component parts show the Swedish crown but no serial numbers.  The rear sight appears to be one of the scarce AGT-Ram target rear sights not identical to the example shown on page 110 Fig 2-68 of the "Swedish Mauser Rifles" by Steve Kehaya and Joe Poyer (North Cape Publications).  The bore rates as bright excellent.  The wood rates as excellent with only the crown marking and  an inletting for a disk.  The inlett shows that a disk was never mounted on this stock.  The butt plate shows a crown and a #140 .  This rifle is one of 18,000 commerical rifles built by Husqvarna for civilian marksmanship training.
