Anyone know a source of Swedish M96 range plates?

[Claven2]

Specifically, I need to locate an M96 nail-on type brass range plate that gives the trajectory conversions for when using the M41 spitzer ammo in M94 calibrated M96 Swede Masuer rifles.

Haven't had luck at my usual sources, so if anyone knows of some for sale, can you pls put me onto the source?

Need one to finish a nice early M96 with the early pattern swept walnut stock. Gun is otherwise worthy of an MKL entry, but I need the plate to "restore" it as this one never had a water transfer deal, the holes are present to show it once had the range plate.

Somebody probably removed it after import to "pretty the rifle up"

Anyhow... PM me with the info if you don't want to post in an open forum.

It almost positively IS if it's off an M96 stock Please e-mail me the particulars and consider one of 'em SOLD!

This is what it should look like:

If you have the original nails too, that would be a bonus

e-mail me & let me know the price, payment instructions, etc.

I have one of the round brass ones if anyone can use it

 

[Claven2]

ok, all pm's anwered. Never heard back from "klondike pete" and Calum's lead didn't pan out. Anyone else got any ideas?

 

[Claven2]

Heard back from klondike pete - it wasn;t a range plate afterall, but a range decal already on a stock.

I don't remember these plates being so hard to find in the past???

Grr... yet another lead has been exhausted. Guy in Sweden thought he had one, turned out to be an M38 plate

SOMEWHERE someone's GOT to have an M96 plate they can let go of!?!?#@$#%$$#%$!?!

This is the one I need:

I'm willing to buy or trade for one. If you need some particular part that maybe I can help with in return, let me know!!! I sure wish now that I hadn't gave away the ones I had last year...

Well, I think I have one, but there's two problems....

1. I think it's missing one of the little brass finishing screws.

2. I think I bought it off fleaBay (can't remember cost) to install on a nice m/96 Swede I bought that was missing it, but I never got round to doing it. Now I can't even remember if I even have that rifle any more....

I'll check tonight and let you know...

Regards,
Badger
