I'm sure the bidding will pick up when the auction nears the end.  I'm curious as I have an all matching 96 that I may market.  Of course if the price doesn't go too high, I might have to buy instead of sell.  Thanks for the heads up Saloon Slug.... I like those Swedes.

My pleasure James
I don't have a dog in the fight but I know all of you Mauser fans are always lusting after Swed's so when I saw it I thought I would share with the group.

I've seen the all matching number swede's hit the $400 mark lately too.  Years ago the non matching numbered ones were selling for around $200 to $225.  But now the price depends on what condition it is in too.  I was lucky here years ago because Mikey and S.Sumner told me about the quality of the swede mausers and how I should have one they were right.

BTW;  That tag looks like a Samco tag too.  The quality of the swede mauser depends on when it was purchased from them too.  We went thru the bottom of the barrel on the swede mausers a few years ago too.  I have heard about them assembling anything they could to sell it too, the snipers were lately too. Make sure you get a 3 day inspection with any unseen purchase over the net too, just make sure you can return it for a refund.
