Once again, these ads contains the magic swedish word: "svensk special stal" (swedish special steel), what ever that is ? I also find it funny that these ads from 1967, Husqvarna will garantee these fine indestructible swedish guns for one year

When occupying Narvik in northern Norway, the british had plans to invade Sweden and take control of the Kiruna iron mine. However, the british disaster in northern France put an end to these british ambitions, and the germans instead, had then, the full benefit of this "Svensk Special Staal".

That is interesting that the Ross rifle is made of "Svensk Special Staal". I find the color of white metal of bolt, of the swedish Mauser, is different from any gun metal I have encountered.
