I'm getting rid of this little generator as I have 3 others and don't need this little one any more.  For NCKA members who have been members for at least 90 days, I am offering it for $250. 

I've listed it on craigslist here;

Here are a few photos;

Is this one of those quiet ones? Do you know how many hours are on this?
1st Place in a private tournament I did not invite anyone else to be in. (and I barely squeaked out a victory)

You said it Jude.  This thing is clean other than it's packed with cosmoline that I'll have to clean off before shooting.  The bluing is in really great shape.  The barrel is threaded on the end for a flash suppressor that did not come with it.  Here's some photos;













There is a brass disc about 30mm in diameter inletted into the right side of the buttstock. There are actually three disc variations, an early 2-screw disc, a later 2-screw disc, and a 1-screw disc. My rifle has the one screw type disc.

The one screw disc is divided into 3 sections, each of which is marked in such a way as to reveal some information about that particular rifle. The smallest "slice" of the brass disc bears the numbers 1, 2, and 3 with a triangular punch mark over one of the numbers. This indicates the condition of the bore. No punch mark is perfect. 1 means a very few dark areas in the corners of the lands and grooves. 2 indicates rust in the corners of the lands and grooves and possible light rust in the grooves. 3 indicates spots of light rust throughout the grooves, but no sharp edges; this is still acceptable.

The next slice of the little brass disc indicates the elevation aiming error when shooting the standard m/41 Swedish service load, which used a 140 grain boat-tail spitzer bullet at a MV of around 800 m/s. There are three Swedish words in this sector of the disc. "Torped" indicates the 140 grain BT spitzer bullet (there was an earlier 156 grain RN bullet), "Overslag" means over, followed by a space and then "Str." Str is the abbreviation for streck, a unit of angle, and there are 6300 streck to a circle. Streck were used in a manner similar to the way North American shooters use minutes of angle. If there is a number in the blank space between Overslag and Str. it indicates the amount the rifle shoots over in terms of streck. 1 streck equals approximately 1/10 meter at 100 meters. So a 1 in the space on the disc indicates that rifle would shoot 10 cm (or a little less than 4") above the point of aim at 100 meters. The space is blank on my rifle's disc, indicating that it shoots to point of aim.

The largest slice of the disc has an outer and an inner arc of numbers. The outer arc bears numbers "6.51" followed by the numbers 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.  The inner arc bears the numbers "6.46" followed by 7,8,9,0  (my rifle has a punch mark over the zero.)  The punch mark reveals the actual diameter of the particular barrel (and thus, presumably, any wear).

All the numbers on this rifle match and the year stamp on the receiver is 1928.
