The Model E is extremely rare and there is no central cache of Husqvarna parts. Your profile doesn't indicate where you are located in the US. If you happen to get to Rapid City, SD there is a gun shop that specializes in parts for out of production guns - Jack First Gun Shop - good friends...

If anyone is interested I have a Model D and a Model E along with a bunch of A's and a couple of B's. I have only come across one Model C which was on GunBroker six to seven years ago and sold for a lot of money - very rare. I just sold a Model B 30-06 two weeks ago at the Tulsa Show. Also...

Wmurray, I just posted a reply to another thread in this same section under the title: bolt needed for Husky/S&W 30-06. It has some of the historical information on the various Husqvarna rifles imported to the US. Based on the serial number your rifle would have been imported in 1970 by S&W...

I agree that floating the barrel is needed especially from what you described about doing the dollar bill test. But before you get into relieving the stock, look at the following first. Check your action screws first to be sure they are snug. Then I would suggest looking at the scope. You...

Perhaps some information that could help. In 1969 S&W began the importation of Husqvarna Mauser style actions generally referred to as 1600 series actions. In late 1969 Husqvarna began producing the last rifle action which they designed that being the 1900 action. S&W continued this...

Hi Scopefred Could you post pic's of the rifle, especially the rear of the action, and provide the first three digits of the serial number. There were several different models of Husqvarna rifles that were imported into the US by S&W. I think that I can give you a hand with more info.

My travel long gun is a lever gun, usually a Marlin 336 in 30-30, or a Marlin 1895 in 45-70. One of the main reason is that the lever guns don't carry the same tone as the black rifles. Any of these rifles would serve my needs to at least 100 yards. If for some reason I ended up in court, I...

I haven't checked recently, but several months ago there were several wooden S&W boxes on Ebay.

It is always heart warming to hear others speak so highly and passionately of the S&W Husqvarna Model 1900 rifles. I bought my first S&W Model A in 1971 and still have it today. And it still shoots great. I have picked up several other S&W Husqvarnas over the years as well as some of the HVA...
