Details Matt....please.
Top 3000 Crown Grade
Second "Husky" H-5000
Third model 648
fouth a 4100 which would have worth more if left in 7X57...
To keep this thread alive here's a pic. This is my 7mm 1900 with a spare Monte Carlo standard stock that I refinished. It had the thin plastic buttplate that was cracked so I cut it and put this red pad on it after sanding, oiling and waxing the stock. Didn't spend too much time getting every bump and ding out of this stock as this is what it will wear in the field. This stock was bedded 40 years ago so I'm hoping it shoots nice.
The other grade III stock is still being refinished. Anyways, here she is, not the greatest grain but does have some nice striping.

This has got too be the best post I've read about husqvarna thank you for pics and info guys
It hasn't hurt the value of the rifles, either.

Agreed! I have owned, shot, hunted with, and collected Husqvarna rifles since 1964.
My first one was a Model 5000 "Husky" in 270 Winchester. Put over 4000 rounds down the tube of that rifle, almost all were 130 gr Silvertips ahead of 62 gr of surplus H4831 that we bought for 50 cents a pound. Traded it for a brand new vacuum cleaner for my wife.
Still have one or two.....

You could have it anodized black. That'll be more durable than paint
Vacuum cleaners, wives, or rifles?
J/K Ted!!!
Spary can paint works, but it's far as being a permanent fix.
To get a definitive fix, you'll need to go either anodizing or ceramic based paint. I tried two-parts car paint, it works, too.
