I picked up my Layaway Yesterday. A CG-63. For those of you that don't know what I'm talking about, it's a M-96 Swedish Mauser converted to a 300 meter target rifle. The stcok and barrel were replaced, and work was done on the trigger and bolt, and a competition sight was added. The caliber remains 6.5 x 55. Mine started as a 1906 manufactured Carl Gustav, M-96. I am not positive, but I believe the receiver was restamped with a crown and 69, which could reasonably be the year it was remanufactured. The barrel is heavy, but around medium size for a match barrel. The barrel is floated and is about 28" long. For the most part, the rifle is in excellent condition but has a bit more than its fair share of dings in te stock. Overall, at less than $600, I think it was a great deal, and better than most of the beat up Russian Olympic rifles I have seen, and they're in 22lr. I was planning on an M-96 Swedish Mauser, but I think this is a step up. Somebody was telling me about a possible source for match grade amunition, but I didn't write it down. If anyone is interested, Sarco sometimes has these available.
