Hagen in Christiana (Oslo), Norway, that Hagen got their own special engraving on their A-Grades -- I have suspected that Norwegians, recently independent from Sweden, didn't want to buy Husqvarna guns! A while back on Shotgunworld.com a Norwegian poster showed an XE-Grade Fox that was the most worn I've ever seen!! Wonder if it shot any Nazi occupiers during WW-II? When we visited my Wife's relatives near Ostersund in Jamtland, Sweden, they all had modern Sako bolt action, scope sighted, rifles for their Elg (our Moose) hunting but they had the old Model 15/17/20 Husqvarna shotguns. To them the Elg were just food, but the trophy they prized and talked the most about was a Capercaillie.

The name escapes me at the moment, but there recently was a gun , based on the Remington Model 32 design, made in Scandinavia . The gun I was thinking of was Valmet from Finland.

And maybe Beretta, Benelli, Tikka and a few others because Beretta owns them. But I believe these are the more popular ones used in Finland. Last edited by Jimmy W; 12/02/25 12:05 PM.

I take it along on bird hunting trips as a predator hunter and backup for my bird gun. The Valmets have the sliding cover like a Rem 32 or Krieghof. After the first shot the rest are just noise.

Just because something is Scandinavian does not mean it is Viking. Just like everything Southern isn't Cracker. Get it? May God bless America and those who defend her.
