The mechanism looks like the converted Swedish Remington, but it should then have a producers name stamped in. The original M1867 calibre in mm of the military Swedish Remingtons was 12,17x44, but in 1889 it was converted to 8x58RD.

Military Remington rifles made in Sweden were stamped with the manufacturer on the right hand side of the receiver and on the top of the barrel.

Rifles stamped with a crowned C are made by Carl Gustafs stads gevärsfaktori.
Rifles stamped with an H are made by Husqvarna vapenfabriks AB.
Rifles stamped with an S surmounted by the old type open crown are made by Stockholms gevärsverkstad.
Rifles stamped Cb surmounted by the old type open crown are made by Carlsborgs Tygstation.
