Has anyone gotten this condensed reprint of the Husqvarna Rifle and Shotgun books from Kebco LLC? Is it worth the $50? Opinions? I've never been able to find the Husqvarna shotgun book for three times the $120 they mention.

"HUSQVARNA JAKTVAPEN 1870-1977"" This is a reprint of the Husqvarna Rifle and Shotgun books that have been out of print for 20 years and now cost about $120 each when you can find them. Husqvarna Jaktvapen (Husqvarna Hunting guns) has lots of great information on Husqvarna shotguns and rifles. This book is 6" x 8 1/2", 255 pages, and has black and white photos (the original full sized books have color photos). This reprint condensed both full-sized books into one smaller book that appears to have all the information from the original pair. It's published in SWEDISH, but you can still get lots of information out of the book like serial ranges, models, dates of manufacturer, etc. The book does cover some of the military pistols but does not cover the Swedish Military Mausers, M38 or M96.guns. All the commercial rolling block rifles are included. This will probably turn out to be a one time offering. $50 total including shipping (via Priority Mail).

You might want to ask the question on the Swedish Civilian & Sporting Firearms forum:

I had 100 of these books, kept one for myself as a working copy and now only have 11 copies left, most were sold to users of the above forum.
