Why no love for the Swedish Ljungman AG 42?

[westkraut]

They are pretty much a defensive military rifle that could be fired all day long without getting a sore shoulder.....like a Garand with low recoil. They are an unusal firearm that deserve to be in a military collection and they are fun to shoot as well.

I bought a sporterized Hakim from Jason (Gunco) at a gunshow in the early 90's. Seem to remember it gave him a little bite,made his dad chuckle as he was standing beside him. I still have that rifle which comes out at deer season,a uncut Hakim and Ag42 have come and gone,I don't really miss them but they were fun,what I really miss is my Garand !
