The Model 1896 rifle in 6.5×55mm (6,5 mm Gevär m/96) was adopted in 1896 for
infantry use, replacing the Model 1867–1889 Remington rolling block rifle in 8×58m
Krag.
Swedish production (under license) started in 1898 at Carl Gustafs, but additional
rifles were produced by Mauser during 1899 and 1900 because of delays in
shipping additional production machinery from Germany to Sweden.

Standard production at Carl Gustafs continued until 1925, but approximately 18,000
m/96 rifles were manufactured by Husqvarna Vapenfabriks AB during World War II
for civilian marksmanship training.

Reserve has been set for this rifle at $650
