Buy it. Buy it. Buy it.
I got it! Another caliber to reload for so at the moment I only have 4 rounds for it.Buy it. Buy it. Buy it.
This.Buy some Prvi 139gr SP, what they charge for ammo the brass is easily worth that. I have Prvi 6.5x55 brass that I have been using for YEARS and it is still flawless except it won't hold a shine anymore. My best groups have all been with neck sized PPU brass. I have been reloading the Sweed for years if you need any help working a load up.
Lets see some more pictures..................I got it! Another caliber to reload for so at the moment I only have 4 rounds for it.
This is true.The thread title got me.
That is a very good price on the short rifle. I've owned several over the years and all were great shooters, although like mentioned, they did impact a tad! high.
It is not a Swedish carbine though.

Leave me some!That Privi 6.5x55 ammo is one of the few things I have been able to find at Cabelas here. Got some already and gonna get more next time I'm in there...
This is correct, that would be the m/94, with a barrel length of 17 & 3/4 inches & a entire rifle length right at 3 ft................This is true.
There IS a carbine, 18 incher, but the M38 is not it.
Yeah, your right that was supposed to be right at 3 ft. not 2 ft....................Entire rifle length under 24"? Perhaps for just the receiver and action out of the stock, but the entire m94 carbine is much longer than 24".
Here is another version of that rifle. I copied this from my original post just to put the "numbers" on this thread:
It is a bolt action that I believe has been "sporterized" - looks like a military action of some sort, but it has a Monte Carlo style stock on it and the barrel appears to have been cut down and lightened. Here are the markings: On top of the action in front of the feed/ejection port is a "crown" engraving with some sort of gothic letter symbol under it. Under that is "CARL GUSTAFS STADS" - under that is "GEVARSFAKTORI" - and under that is "INTERARMCO G 33/50". On the left side of the action is stamped "RL 47926" - on the rear left side of the action is "969", and there is "969" stamped on the back of the bolt and safety lever. On the floor plate are two small "crown" engravings and "839". It does not appear to be a movable floorplate - as in you have to load magazine from the top, and the magazine follower locks the bolt back.
IIRC, the Swede M38 is not a carbine, it was a standard issue battle rifle.
