Swedish Stiga Rifles??? Any Info

[arnott1t]

Looking at buying one in 30-06. Was wondering if anyone has heard anything about them. I think there a mauser 96 action but im not sure. Just thought I'd ask some of the experts.

Thanks,

Well, I'm no expert but I'd be wary of a .30-06 in a M96 Mauser small ring.

Here's some comments fron another site.

All the rifles I've seen on a certain website with Stiga in the detail are indeed 96 Mausers. Don't list me in the expert column, I don't know if Stiga is Swede for built off a 96, or if it just means sporter....
Can you get a close up pic of the rifle in question? As soon as you see the bolt shroud/ safety design you will be certain!

Contact aacollectible here, I am pretty sure he can tell you anything you need to know about the Stiga rifles.
