Hello gals and gents!
Happy holidays, I hope everyone is doing well! I have the opportunity to purchase a Swedish mauser for a very very reasonable price (400$ cash). It is not sporterized or molested in any way shape or form. Made in 1911 by Carl Gustav, it is the long rifle version. It also has a very strange threaded barrel at the muzzle end. Worth noting that the bolt doesn't match the receiver on this one (not sure how heavily this will affect its value or functionality).
I guess what I'm asking is if anyone can comment to the build quality of these "mausers" and if any one has any experiences to share regarding these rifles.
I've had lots of mausers over the years but never a chance to own a swede.
Any help/history regarding these guns is.greatly appreciated.
