Husqvarna 270 Rifle S Update Your Password.Take care of your "new" find and good luck. There are still many hunters toting those old workhorses in the Swedish forests and they would never ever swap them for anything more "modern". Otherwise it is a really great and accurate hunting rifle with hundreds of thousands of moose on its list of qualifications. A locking catch moves in and out of a notch in the bolt with every repeating cycle and should there be snow or debris in that notch the bolt will likely fall to the ground if the rifle is carried with the bolt open and the barrel pointing upwards. The only flaw with the rifle is the bolt locking mechanism. The 1640 was considered a very expensive and labor intensive model to manufacture and it saw its demise in 1967 and in 1968 the model 1900 was introduced. The 1640 was imported to the US by Tradewinds and they could provide a number of options, like light-weight rifles and just barreled actions to the American customers. Prior to 1957 the floor plate was made of steel, but from 1957 and later it was made of cast aluminum due to financial reasons. All 1640s were made with a controlled feed, non-rotating claw extractor bolt and a hinged floor plate. The standard model was equipped with 60 cm barrels but could be ordered with 52 cm barrels as an option.

358 Norma Magnum and that round was chambered in a reinforced model called the 1651. The 1640 was introduced in 1953 and was chambered in 6.5x55 Swedish. Its predecessor the M 640 was built around the Mauser M 98 action, but the 1640 was built around a new modified M 98 action, designed and constructed by the engineers at Husqvarna. These rifles were manufactured in the old fashion way by skilled craftsmen and mechanics, mostly using hand tools and of superb quality.

Congratulations to a classic Swedish hunting rifle ! What you have there is a Husqvarna Model 1640.
