A Historical Perspective and Collector’s Guide

Swedish Military Small Arms 1890–1967
Available as a print on demand from Amazon

This is a definitive encyclopedic reference covering the development, service, and identification of Sweden’s military firearms during a period of profound technological change. Intended for international collectors, historians, and researchers, the book documents more than seven decades of Swedish small-arms history with precision, depth, and clarity.

Beginning with early transitional designs preceding the Carbine m/1894, the volume follows the establishment and evolution of the Swedish Mauser system, including carbines, rifles, sniper variants, and specialized adaptations. It continues through the introduction of semi-automatic rifles, light machine guns, submachine guns, and concludes with Sweden’s entry into the assault-rifle era in the mid-1960s. It includes all matching bayonets for the Swedish made guns

Handguns are given equal and systematic treatment, from 19th-century revolvers to 20th-century service pistols, including models specific to the Swedish Air Force. Each weapon is placed within its historical, technical, and organizational context, providing both collectors and scholars with reliable reference data.

Extensive appendices form a core strength of the book, offering detailed guidance on manufacturing origins, markings, inspection and acceptance stamps, ammunition, nomenclature, and letter codes—essential tools for accurate identification and authentication. Additional annexes reproduce rare and authoritative articles from Swedish arms literature, preserving valuable primary sources for an international audience.

Combining rigorous research with practical reference value, this volume serves as both an encyclopedia and a working guide. It is an essential resource for anyone seeking a thorough and trustworthy understanding of Swedish military small arms from the late 19th century to the dawn of modern service weapons.
