Step back in time with this beautifully-crafted Bolt Action Rifle from the esteemed manufacturer, Husqvarna Vapenfabriks AB. This Mauser Series model, hailing from Sweden, is a living testament to the rich history of fine sporting firearms that Husqvarna Vapenfabriks AB has been producing since the late 17th century.
Despite showing signs of prior use and handling, this firearm is in good overall condition. Included in the sale is the rifle itself, chambered in .270 Win caliber, a popular choice for hunting medium-sized game due to its balance of velocity, energy, and bullet weight. The rifle has a 4-round capacity and a barrel length of 23.5". It sports a blued finish and a checkered walnut wood sporterized stock with an ebony pistol grip cap and buttplate. The stock has some dings and scratches and there is a repair in the top end of the stock just forward of the bolt handle.
The bluing is visibly aged, with a minor blemish on the right top side of the receiver. The bore is clear and shiny but minor fouling is visible between rifling. Despite these signs of wear, this vintage rifle is still a great shooter and will continue to be for years to come.
The Mauser Series rifle is not just about the gun, but also about the optic. Included in the sale is a Vintage Bushnell Custom-DM 3x-9x Vari-Power 3-9x40mm Rifle Scope. Despite its age, this scope offers a good range of magnification and decent light transmission. The wear on the turrets is mostly minor and gives the scope a character that speaks to its vintage nature. The capped windage and elevation turrets with a 1/4 MOA click value add a level of precision that will be appreciated by sharpshooters and hunters.
This combination of firearm and optic is a fine example of mid-20th century sport shooting technology.
Whether you're a collector, a history buff, a hunter, or a competitive shooter, the Husqvarna Vapenfabriks AB Mauser Series rifle is an appealing choice. Not only does it offer powerful performance and a timeless appeal, but it also brings with it a slice of history. Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of the legacy that Husqvarna Vapenfabriks AB has been crafting since the 17th century.
