M96 Swede Pics

[REDSTAR]

Here's a few pics of that Swede I picked up about a month ago. I got it for $129 or so I think maybe $139. It was missing the cleaning rod and muzzle attachment. I ordered a sling, oiler and flash suppressor from Samco. She's looking pretty spiffy. She has a very nice patina. She's seen some use and the wood shows it but a beauty in my eyes all the same. She is a Carl Gustafs dated 1915. So given the age she's a real beaut. The bore is mirror. There's some rust on the buttplate I need to deal with still. These slings are really nice for $8. I recomend a swede to any of you guys who don't have one yet. Samco still has them. Very nice quality made rifles and a real joy to shoot. Real smooth action.

Hope you enjoy the pics.

Looks good Redstar. I really like the flash hider on it. Wish mine had a threaded barrel to accept one.

Very Nice!

Gotta love those swedes!

Very nice Redstar! And that leather sling really sets it off. I might have to pick up a few of them for my girls. I have debated getting the flash hider cause I wonder if it will affect accuracy. It looks a lot better than just the bare threads though.
