A few months ago, I bought a Carl Gustaf 3000. This rifle was the Sauer Model 80 assembled under license in Sweden. The barrel and the stock were made in Sweden and all the rest of the parts were German.

The bolt is extremely smooth and there are three internal locking wedges. These wedges are deployed and locked into place once the bolt handle shuts.

My rifle is phenomenally accurate and it is a pleasure to use and own

That’s nice, but you didn’t tell us what it is chambered in?
 
Nice rifle.

There is a lot of rifle cross dressing in the 1970's and 1980's.

Heym made Mausers (not the 98). The Heym M10 and M20 clones. Mauser 2000s.

Sauer made Carl Gustaf guns

The current situation is with Austrian and Swiss companies.

Roessler and all the Capra from Switzerland. Keltka another Swiss company is a Voere LWB.

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ
