Okay....I'll be honest I'm a bow hunter at heart, rarely touch long guns outside of shotguns and 22's for squirrels. However, working part time at a shooting range/gun store I've fallen in love with a few of the older guns that have just been sitting on the rack...just clueless on them.
The one that caught my eye the most is one chambered in 6.5x55 and is stamped Carl Gustafs Stads Gevarsfakori with a 1909 stamp right below that, or I assume it is 1909 but the "0" has a stamped or drill hole of some kind. The serial #111453 is stamped on side of barrel and 453 stamps matching on other portions of the rifle.
Rough tape measure of the barrel to the bolt is around 19inches...overall rifle length is right around 36 inches. Any information those whom know more can give will be appreciated!
Now the bolt is smooth as butter, the images make it look rougher than it truly is but does need some TLC cleaning done.
