Thanks guys. Now I gotta shoot it. I picked up the bayo for 20 bucks on ebay but it has some rust on the handle that needs attention.


Oh man you got a deal...I'm not even going to mention what we would have to pay for one of those in our area.

check out ebay. I saw a few, the others were in the $50 dollar range. My bayo had decent rust and no frog so...

That's a pretty looking Swede. Is it matching other tha the bolt?


yes it is. it was given to me by an old timer who's wife had lost the bolt during a move, and he had no more use for it. And hunterhenderson helped me out completeing a bolt for it and voila. The bore is super shiny too. Oh the bayonet was ordered off ebay.

What do you guys think its worth?
 
The old man had refinished the rifle to that reddish colour so I decided to take it back to a walnut type finish. I will post new pics tomorrow.

And, we are not weird, just... strange>
Actually we know each other outside of this forum and its just our way of harassing each other in jest.
 
I refinished her back to a walnut but my camera software is being uncooperitave so I have to send the pics to someone else to post them. I may use my 12 g. 870 wingmaster on the camera. Not sure. What do you think; 870 or .303 british
 
good call. I will take the camera out with the swede. Seeings how it was this, that I got so much grief from the camera. I will try to film the cameras demise and post it but my video camera will probably shyte the bed on me too, so...
