This is one of my favorite rifles and will most likely regret selling it. Easily shoots under an inch with 225 Accubonds over Reloader 15. Action is really slick and have less than 200 rounds down the tube. It started life as a 30/06 that I had rebarreled.

I have taken it on three hunts and killed two black bears and one elk. There are two small scratches on the stock that I tried to capture in the photos. Cerakote is perfect. I am happy to take more pictures and send by email. Just PM with your email address. The rifle has not been bedded.

Rifle specs:

Carl Gustaf "Swede" Deluxe (CG 1900)
Douglas Barrel - 23.75 (measured from the front of the receiver)
1-12 twist
McMillan Sako Hunter stock LOP 13 7/8" factory brown with black webbing
Trigger set to 3lbs
Talley one piece rings
"Tungsten Gray" Cerakote by Fosnaugh Customs (EddieF)
Weighs 7lbs 9oz with the rings

1100.00 shipped and insured to the lower 48.

Would consider partial trade of:
Leupold 4.5-14X40
Ruger Lite 22/45
Ruger American Predator .223
Marmot limelight 3p tent

Thanks,
Andy

Have to admit my "iggnerance" as I don't know anything about this action.

Can you tell me who made it, when, what was it used for etc.

Husky push feed ?

This rifle was originaly named "Husqvarna (HVA) 1900" when production started in 1968, and was a cost cutting measure because the HVA 1640 became to costly. In 1969 HVA�s gun division was sold to the goverment owned Carl Gustaf/FFV and they continued to produce these rifles untill production ceased in 1978 under the name "Carl Gustaf (CG)1900". Production of the CG 1900 ceased for the same reason as for the HVA 1640, it became to expensive to produce.

This rifle have for the last 30 years really been the Swedes and Norwegians riflemans rifle, like the Winchester M70 have been for the americans. In my opinion this rifle is light, reliable, accurate and have perhaps one of the smoothest actions ever made.

After production ceased in Sweden, many copys where made because this was a truly popular rifle. Most known of these are the Italian firm Antonio Zoli, who still produce copys of this rifle (with small modifications) under the name "Antonio Zoli 1900". I don't know if these Zoli rifles are available in the US though...�
