Husqvarna Sporting Rifles #### - ALL MODELS!!!

They sure did. I know that for a fact, because I had one. You won't believe what happened to it. After Marg used it for quite a few years, a guy here in Whitehorse bought it. Just had to have it, you know................. next time I spoke with him, several months later, he had had it rechambered to 7mm Rem Mag! :kickInTheNuts:

308NM. My favorite 30 cal magnum. As of late I've picked up a 'few' Husqvarnas, and, I was kinda' thinking, one more. :rolleyes:Ya right. How many times have I 'uttered' that coment? Anyway, seeing as I have the dies, brass and a selection of bullets, I thought perhaps I 'needed' a 7x57. I'm too late, or so Ted tells me. The one he had available has been snapped up.

Actually had five of them over the years, Johnn. These two 4100s, both 7X57, went to CGN homes recently.

Here's a 3000 similar to Noel's, also in 30-06.

And, a 9.3X57 that I have had for quite a few years.

Ted,

Your 9.3X57 is a M/46, first model of sporting repeating rifle they made. They were made from new actions from the Carl Gustav plant. You can say it's a model 46, not a 46A by the "rounded" pistol grip. The later model 46A have a pistol grip cap.

I understand that the Mannlicher stocked Huskys aren't very common.

The more I look at it the more I like it:). In my 'sometime down the road' mode or time frame, something along that line in 7x57 will hopefully end up being my next Husqvarna. In the meantime I've got two recent Husqvarna acquisitions to 'work' with:D.

Then, I still have to meet a H-5000 in 7mm Rem Mag... wich caliber was far more popular here, in Canada than in the US... and doesn't exist in Europe...

Keep things comin'

I happen to be on the fringe of owning one. Waiting for a certain amount of time to expire, and then I'm picking it up. And no, I am not a vulture waiting for some poor fellow to die;).

What are you looking at picking up? I have two and got a call from Ted, #3 was sent in the mail this afternoon and should be here next week. In preparation;), the brass is in the tumbler as we speak:D.
 
An H-5000 in 7mm Remington Magnum. Beautiful rifle, odd story behind it. Its sitting with my Model 12 take down with Modified choke and 30" tube in excellent condition as well. I'm am pondering on taking the 1000 in 30-06 as well. All are in fantastic condition.
 
Do what you have to do to get what you want... Especially if it's an uncommon HVA rifle :evil:

Disclaimer; please use common sense and don't take my words for cash and do not commit crimes, obscenities, or any other thing that may drive you to jail or straight to Hell! :nest: If you know you are not strong enough to resist the envy, please stay away from HVA products, for your own salvation. I do not carry this avatar for fun.

Does anyone have any comments on the weight of their Husqvarna triggers?
Click to expand...

I don't have a guage to check or measure it and that's something I'll have to pick up one of these days. However, on the '06 model 4000 I inherited from my Dad, the trigger pull is on the heavy side and that's something I've taken that into account in when in the field and when punching paper. Perhaps one day I'll get it 'touched up' before I pass it on to my Granddaughter:).

On the 1651 in 358NM I picked up recently, that seems to be good. I have a 7000L coming in this week and on that I'll let you know when it gets here:D.
 
Any original Mauser type triggers should never be below 3.5 lbs, the safe "point" being between 3.5 to 5 lbs.
Also, the sear should come out of a minimum of .110-.120" above from where it protrudes from the receiver when at rest position. This is to keep a minimum contact with the cocking piece ledge.
The single stage triggers usually are "heavier" because they lack the progressive movement a two-stage trigger will initiate.

Whatever, there are some ways to make the factory single stage trigger "easier" but since I've seen bubba jumping up on grinders and Dremels to do such, I will not post that here. Any competent gunsmith must be able to bring such a trigger, without much effort to about 3.5 to 4 lbs.
I do it with most of my rifles, and they all work perfectly.

Most of the 1651 and other higher grades of rifles (above the Crow Grade) have the Tradewinds (actually a Timney) adjustable trigger, wich you may sometimes encounter in gun shows and Bee-Bay.
 
Huber Concepts makes a nice drop-in adjustable trigger for Husqvarnas. I have one in mine and I highly recommend it.

I too, suggest a replacement aftermarket trigger over modifying the original ones, unless one really knows what he is doing, wich is definitely not the case with everyone.

With your depth of experience on Husqvarnas is there a preference you have for any particular brand and/or model of after market trigger?
 
I personally only use(d) the original Tradewinds-Timney triggers, but actually, if you're not fussy about the original sliding safety feature and don't mind removing some stock material for the new safety lever, you can use any aftermarket trigger that fits the HVA - the Huber Concept triggers are said to use the original safety lever, just like the Tradewinds but I did not personally try it yet, so I can't really comment.
