On my website ( http://www.weiss-trading.com/) there is some little background information on the model 25 and model 45. They also made a model 26 and 35. Check under rifles - Bolt action

Fritz,
Yes, I've been to your site. Lots of very good info and data on Husqvarna. You mention that the 25 (and others) were based on the Mauser System. The action is indeed very similar to the 1871 Mauser. I like to think of it as the original mini Mauser. Was the design/manufacture licensed by Mauser, or was it a Swedish design with Mauser influence?

I don't think the design was licensed by Mauser. For the shotguns they bought a lot of parts in Belgium. And also for the model 146 and 640 Husqvarna bought 98 systems from FN. Probably for these smaller rifles the parts where also bought in Belgium, but there is little to none information.
There are some articles written by Frederik Franzen, which I will try to translate and put them on my website. I will take a long holiday this year, so there should be time to put in my website.

Accordind to Axel, these small rifles were refered to as Mausers in the same way all circular saws are called SKIL saws. Note that while they are similar to the M71 in appearence, they do not have the "screw and button bolt stop". It's my, not very respected,opinion they are variations of the Dresye(?).The Mauser M71 also has Dresye(?)features.
