Loonies, the lot of ya!
Oldest, if my thinking is correct, 1918 barrel date, Swedish Mauser. Close as I can tell in as issued form, matching numbers except for cleaning rod. (Some collectors have told me I'm lucky to have gotten one at all) Purchased in the 90's ('95?) at Big 5 on sale for $85. Had intentions of bubbafying it, but very glad I didn't.
Second I believe goes to 1945 mfg by Savage #4MK 1*, brought back to this country by an importer and sporterized. Was my Dad's so I keep it around.
Geno
PS. glad to hear others are still hunting with theirs. The two I mentioned haven't been hunted in a few years. Hard to draw tags nowadays, other rifles usually come out of the safe.
