    1925 dated Swedish M/96

    Was at the SAR show today in Phoenix and picked up a super nice last year of production (1925) Carl Gustafs Stads M/96 rifle. It's all matching and has a beautiful dark stained beech stock. #2 bore and has the correct M/96 range plate nailed to the stock.

    As if I need another Swedish Mauser....

    But the price was very nice, and I didn't have a 1925 dated M/96....

    Only a few pic's as it's getting dark here in Prescott.

    I don't know why I find these Swedish Mauser rifles so intriguing... To me they are just beautiful.

    While at the show I met another Calgunner Jimja at his table. Thanks for the great conversation!!

            Yeah... I went there right after I left your table. The seller took my offer.... Which kind of surprised me..

            What can I say... I'm a sucker for a nice Swede!!

            Great to meet you as well!!

                    Hey that one is really nice. That stock looks better than the near-orange coloration on the minty beech stocks that you usually see.

                      A few more pics. Gotta love the "fire" blue on the ejector box and cover...
