Hi guys

I recently came into possession of an old 12 gauge shotgun, in mint condition.
It's marked Husqvarna Vapenfabrik, Svenskt Specialstal, and has two chiseled-in reverse swastikas on the underside of the block/barrel flats.

Serial # is 4992
Also marked on underside of the block is 18,5

The gun is contained in a leather-bound wood box.

Can anyone give me any info on this beautifully engraved firearm?
[even the screws which hold the butt-plate are intricately engraved]

Cheers...... Paul Malkinson, Australia
