rifle question?
Ihave an old swedish mauser chambered in 6.5x55 swedish and I wanted to know where to get a stock for it? All i can find for a name on it is "interarmco g33/50" and "carl gustaf stads gevars faktori". Can anyone tell me what kind of part are compatible and where to get them. It will be mainly used for deer hunting.

Do you want a sporter stock or do you want a military stock? Do you need parts for the rifle, such as bolt? You have a great deer rifle there, and one of the most accurate Mausers ever made. By the way, what is the date under Carl Gustav Gevarsfaktori? 0 -
I couldn't find a date but there is a "hk57571" marking on the left side of the receiver. 0 -
almost any small ring mauser stock will fit (m- 93/94/96) with a little work. this is realy a m-96 swedish mauser, interarmco just stamped thier mod. # on it. 0 -
You say you have a rifle, so I assume you know this is a surplus military rifle imported to the U.S. by Interarms Co. There were essentially three models, the model 94, a carbine; the model 96 a rifle and the model 38 an update of the 96. You need to determine which you have to find parts. Take a look at: http://oldrifles.com/Sweden.htm for photos. There are other sites for Swedish rifle collectors and likely you can get some help on parts there.

It is a 94 carbine. 0 -
It should have a date beneath the gevarsfaktori. At any rate, the carbine is the rarest and most valuable of all the Swede Mausers. I have seen them go for $500. It is hard to find military stocks for them. Is this rifle in the original military configuration? Are you planning to sporterize it, add a scope etc? 0 -
If it is a model 94 in original military configuration with matching numbers on bolt receiver and other parts, it is highly collectable, and it would be a shame to sporterize it and lose all of that value. It is your rifle of course, but just a thought.

All the numbers are different and it is missing a little bolt to hold the rear sight on. What iwanted to do to it was put on a composite stock and a good scope, new trigger assembly ,andmaybe a longer barrel. 0 -
Listen Gary if you have a model 94 carbine in good condition all original lacking only a little screw, even if numbers are not matching, and you drill and tap it for a scope, you will turn a $500 rifle into a $150 rifle. A sporterized Swede Mauser is a great deer rifle, but you could sell that one and make a collector very happy and you could buy a model 96 Swede Mauser for $200. These have much longer barrels. So you could get this gun sporterized and having drilled and tapped, added scope and stock and had the barrel cut down you would have money left over. Of course the value of your gun will vary a great deal according to condition of stock, condition of metal, rust, bluing, year of manufacture. If it was made before 1899 this would add about $100 to the value. That is why I was inquiring about the date. I know there are walnut stocks readily available for the 96 Swede, you can get them for $50, for $100, and for $150. I don't know about synthetic stocks for them. 0 -
The only other marking that might me a date is the "interarmco G33/50". There is nothing else underneath the "carl gustav stads gevarfaktori" marking. I just don't see any other dates.
If you go look under the link He Dog put in his reply and go down to the Model1894/1897 carbine picture that is what it looks like mine, but mine is in better condition.
