I picked this very nice, unissued looking Husqvarna M/38 on Sunday at the show for $450. I had seen it on Friday for $550 and was surprised that no one had bought it, so I made an offer on Sunday. There was actually a Yugoslavian M48 right next to it for $675. The Swedish bayonet came with a German K98k bayonet and I got the pair for only $100.
The muzzle is unthreaded and the bore is perfect. The camming surfaces on the bolt parts have almost no wear either, so this rifle isn't even broken in. I need to load some 6.5x55, but at least I still have my dies and brass. I've still got a 1920 M/96 that I haven't shot in years that looks even nicer than this. M/38 sights are a bit more adjustable than M/96 sights, so I'll be shooting the crap out of this. I won't have to feel bad about not utilizing my M/96 since I get to shoot 6.5x55 this way. I'll probably use it for some service rifle matches for diversity since I basically only shoot my M1903.
