"Books in the 'For Collectors Only' series include a part by part analysis of the subject firearm, organized by serial number range. All markings, codes, finishes and changes to that part are described. A history of the firearm's development and use is include and special appendices describe specialized versions. Completely illustrated with line drawings and photographs."

A very good, in-depth look at the Swedish Mauser and all of it's variants. If you are thinking about collecting this rifle - this is a good book to have. I never realized there were so many different models and variations of one of the finest Mausers ever manufactured. If you want to know little things like - "What does the print on the brass disk, on the right side of my Swede, mean?" This is the book to get! The only thing I could wish for in addition to what is already contained in the 256 pages is an expanded assembly/disassembly section with diagrams and pictures.
