I know it's a long shot, but what the heck!
Way back in 2013 I sold a Swedish Mauser to another member here, and a few months later he sold it again. Included with the rifle was an unmounted GF receiver sight that I had picked up, but neither of us could bring ourselves to D&T a matching numbers Swede, even if it was a period correct sight. Cleaning out some old boxes I uncovered a non-matching numbers action only project that I've been dragging around for almost 40 years
I can grab one on line again, but I thought I would take a shot and see if maybe someone here ended up with it and like me and Unka-Boo, couldn't deface that old soldier
The sight in question was sold from this ad
And here is a stock photo of what the sight looks like

1915 M96 Swede Mauser
Traded into this thinking I'd reload for it and get some use out of it.....reality says otherwise.... 1915 dated Carl Gustav M96, overall in very nice shape, appears to be numbers matching, but I have not done a complete check ( ie, take the stock off ). It is not threaded for a BFA. Also...
