swedish mauser
I have just recently purchased a Swedish Mauser stamped 1910 with bayonet. When attached the bayonet is sloppy as there seems to be some sort of bushing missing from end of barrel. All that is there is threads. Can someone tell me what I am missing and where I could fine it to complete this rifle. Many thanks, Joe

I have a Swedish Mauser marked Carl Gustafs 1909 on reciever. All number match and is in near perfect shape, it has a threaded barrel with flash hidder. Could someone tell me what the rifle is worth? It is all original.
Thank you0 -
Different model re-worked? Target re-work? 0 -
kind of wondered what was the question.... 0 -
Parts gun can have matching #'s, though not likely. It's a 100 + years old!, lots of time for Bubba or an arsenal rework that didn't get marked, stuff like that happens. 0 -
The question is why does a putative 1900 manufacture gun have a much LOWER serial number than other similar 1899-1900 ones?
First of all, per this reference, your serial of 3219 checks out fine as a late 1900 manufacture gun (scroll to page 6):

So maybe the OTHER guns are the ones that aren't dated correctly!0 -
Part of German manufactured lot.
You should see inspector initials:OG near the serial number for 1899-1900 production.
Swedes weren't happy with German steel and supplied Swedish steel for these Mausers.
An extensive article on the Swede and Ljungman was put together by David Basiji in 1999. it also covers reading the disc code, ballistics, sighting corrections, other references etc if you can find one.0 -

PROBLEM Recently purchased a swed mauser mfg obernorff 1900 on receiver SERIAL NO 3219 all matching. Have several others 1899/1900 serial no# much higher. This is NOT a reject for two reasons. later production and no Swed stamp for rejection. Not a parts gun as all parts match and receiver has not been restamped ( all marking Excellent) Any answers
