Swede Sporter

I have a number of FN and Husqvarna commercial mausers but enjoy sporters as well. This 94-based sporter possesses many elements of the "from swords to plowshares" philosophy. It resembles a Husqvarna 1900. Some Swedish gunsmith spent some time on it - I consider it to be a great piece of "Swedish folk art"

Note the following features:
- Converted military stock - 4 walnut inlays/pieces added,
- Checkering
- Side safety
- FN style bolt handle
- Palm swell
- Miltary bolt shroud angled to complement angled foreend tip
- Commercial Husqvarna buttplate (partial)

In an emergency it can also be used as a paddle.

Well, I guess I don't have upload permission and can't locate how it is requested. What a shame I think you'd enjoy a look.

You HAVE permission and don't know it.
