Stiga and Vapen Depoten Falun both used similar stocks to yours: Here is a VDF in 8x57, pictured far right.

Thanks! Mine looks very much like what appears to be a Stiga stock of yours - third from the left. It was definitely worked on after its military service. I was thinking not only about the stock, but the armadillo shaped safety.

No, the VDF is the one on the far right, the remainder are factory Husqvarna sporters. Stiga used a similar type stock which, as you can see, was popular at the time.

Thanks. What do you know about the safety?

Nothing other than it appears to block the trigger. Probably handmade. I've seen dozens of similar pieces, none appeared to have been mass produced.
