Just picked up a Swed M94 (1906 version)in what I feel is very good condition with a wonderfully glass smooth action($165). Matching numbers all around. Likely I will chop it, rebarrel, restock, new trigger, but retain the original cartridge. Haven't seen much on sporterizing these.
The questions: Given the 90 degree bolt sweep, are there any issues or difficulties with either bending or installing a new handle to clear a scope?
Secondly, is the safety conversion seamless?
Thirdly, anything else I should watch out for in a workup?
Lastly, the barrel on this unit is threaded between the front sight and the muzzle. Anyone know what was originally installed there? Obviously looking for Mr. Answer Man. Appreciate the help, 1MInute
