A great video, but that is a M96/38. I own a M38, and they were made between 1938 and 1944 by Husqvarna and were made with a bent bolt handle. Carl Gustav rearsenaled the best M96 to the new M38 pattern

I have two of them. One was a Swedish rifle team. Came from the armory with the front globe and the rear peep adjustable for windage and elevation. Curly beautiful wood. Riffing is like a mirror.

Great Video! Just picked my first m38 up and It is a beautiful rifle. The Swedish definitely knew what they were doing when it came to building quality battle rifles.

It's amazing the level of quality you can maintain when you never have to rush production to fight a war 😆.

@@jabbott376 I just got one of these rifles from a friend who never used it. They never fired or maintained the rifle so is got some rusty areas. Do you have a contact person or place that can do a restoration of the bolt and parts for this rifle? Any support or feedback if greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and support.

You ever here of having to pull back on the firing pin assembly about .05 in order to get the safety to engage, it’s always stuck in the firing position. 1943 M38

Mine would go into safe, but if I wanted to throw it 180 to lock the bolt into position, I'd have to pull on the cocking piece just as you said. Seemingly the only poorly designed part on the whole gun! I did wonder whether it was down to the cocking piece being Husqvarna and the bolt body being Gustafs (I can't remember exactly which bit was which and no longer have this rifle to check).
