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 chance to buy a Swedish 6.55 Mauser made by Carl Gustav. I don't know anything about the gun or the round. Can anyone enlighten me?

    I recently bought a M38 Swedish Mauser, 6.5x55, can someone please explain to me what the markings on the disc in the buttstock mean, I have been told a couple different things. Just want to know the correct meaning. In the section that has 1,2,3. It has an arrow pointing to the one, in the section that has 0,1,2,3,4,5,6 it has an arrow pointing to the zero. Thanks WIN52C

    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 you

    I believe you just need the thread protector that screws onto the end. I can not confirm that the bayonet will fit over it, though, as I dont have a threaded muzzle, and my bayonet fits just right. They are commonly found in the Shotgun News, and also here-http://www.e-gunparts.com/ I would ask around some more on here, and see if someone else knows, before ordering the thread protector. Try posting this in General Discussion, as it gets read more, nunn will probably let it slide this time.

    As the Sweeds had at least 3 different rifles, which one do you have, and what is the markings on the Bayo?

    If you have an M96 swedish mauser, they made a flash hider that went on the end where the threads are, you may need to put it on to get the bayonet to fit right.

    A lot of the 96's (at least, I am not sure about 38's) had threaded muzzles to allow a cutter to be put on to slice the wooden practice bullets. Mine has a bayonet mount below the muzzle.Take a look at: http://www.mausercollector.com/dutchman/ [This message has been edited by He Dog (edited 04-03-2002).]

    I think Rob is right. All you need is a muzzle cap to restore the threaded muzzle to the original diameter of the barrel and the bayonet will be less wobbly. I purchased several of these 5 or 6 years ago from SARCO, and believe that they still have them. Mine went on very tight; so when you put yours on use a little lube in case you want to get it off again someday.
