		This Gustav is much better than an RPG, and vastly superior to an AT-4 or LAW.
		Carl Gustav, like RPG-7, is useful and multipurpose, yes, but AT4 is disposable, the RPG-7 is easily obtainable and cheap, and MBT-LAW surpasses CG in all aspects other than range (only 600 meters) AND it's disposable.

	Modern Firearms - Carl Gustaf antitank recoilless rifle / grenade launcher
		While the Carl-Gustaf recoilless rifle / launcher was initially devised as an antitank weapon, its tactical role was quickly expanded with adoption of various other types of ammunition, such as high-explosive fragmentation rounds, close-defense shrapnel-type rounds, smoke, illumination and several other types of warheads.
		Their only drawback is the bulk and weight of the launcher itself, which is significantly heavier than its major rival, the venerable RPG-7 antitank grenade launcher.
		The Carl-Gustaf recoilless rifles / launchers are fitted with folding open sights, located at the left side of the barrel, but usually issued with telescope sight of 2X or 3X magnification, which has range-finding reticule and can be adjusted for temperature and wing conditions.

		The Peabody rifle’s breech block was lowered when the combined trigger guard and operating lever was lowered, but the external hammer with the old fashioned lock had to be cocked separately each time the gun was to be loaded.
		IV rifles were originally so called Enfield-Martini rifles chambered for a new.402” cartridge, but most if not all were later rebuilt and re-chambered for the old.577/.450 cartridge.
		The Martini-Henry rifles are perhaps best known for their role in the wars against the Zulus in Africa and were made immortal in films like “Zulu” from 1964 starring Michael Caine and Stanley Baker.

	Model 1881 Swedish Jarmann
		This scarce rifle was chambered for an advanced design fl powder cartridge utilizing a tubular magazine and a smaller diameter, lighter weight bullet than was common for most contemporary military rifles.
		Only 1,500 of these Swedish Jarmann rifles were made between 1882 and 1884 at the Carl Gustavs works -- all as trial pieces for the Swedish military.
		Nearly 30,000 Jarmann rifles were also manufactured for the Norwegian military at the Norwegian armament works at Kongsberg, but most of these were destroyed by the Germans after they overran and occupied Norway early in the Second World War.

		The finished rifle is going to be a Bookout family styled flintlock East Tennessee mountain "hog rifle" in.50 calibre, with a 42" barrel and a maple stock.
		Many of these "hog rifles" found their way into the hands of the people who settled in the mountains and were used to harvest the hogs that had been running wild.

		The bolt action rifle adopted by Sweden in the mid-1890s was based on the Mauser design for Spain with significant changes to make it suitable for use by Swedish forces.
		A massive rearmament program was instituted, and in 1938, the barrels of some 30,000 m/96 rifles were reduced in length to 24.5 inches to produce the m/96-38 rifle.
		Large stocks of the m/96 rifle had gone to Finland in 1939 during the Winter War against Soviet aggression, and now, thousands more were sold to Denmark and Norway to reequip their military forces after the German occupation.

	Historical Fencing Studies - The British Legacy
		In the preface to his famous 1896 complete bibliography of fencing and dueling, British researcher Carl Thimm stated “all forms of fencing” were seeing at the time a “revival” after a “long period of abeyance”.
		Carl Thimm also recounted a “magnificent display of historical fencing which took place in Brussels in the spring of 1894”.
		Interestingly enough, Carl Thimm recounted an 1891 display at the Empire Theater of Varieties in London by “Professor Hartl’s Corps of Viennese fencing ladies” who conducted “masterful” fencing displays including “rapier and dagger duels” wearing masks and padded cuirasses of leather.

	Collecting and Shooting the Swedish Mauser Target Model - Range Report
		I had ordered the Swedish Mauser Carl Gustav CG63 Match Rifle from Sarco, and like most of rifles that I purchase, my wife was only given basic information: it was a “mil-surp” which to her means relatively cheap (NOT!
		While this rifle is not “technically” a military surplus as most of us are accustomed to purchasing, the CG 63 was specially made in Swedish military arsenals for 300 meter match shooting.
		For information on operations and basic maintenance remember that this rifle was built on a Swedish Model 1896 Mauser action and most every thing is the same except for sights and barrel dimensions.

		Troops often refer to it as the 84 or Carl G. The Carl Gustav was first introduced into Swedish service in 1946, filling the same role as the US Army Bazooka, British PIAT and German Panzerschreck.
		The result is considerably better accuracy at longer ranges; the Carl G could attack targets at 700 metres, easily besting the Bazooka and PIAT, and only being matched in range by the Panzerschreck.
		The Carl Gustav was used in the bunker-busting role by soldiers of Canada's famed Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry Regiment in anti-terrorist operations in Afghanistan.

		Saab Bofors Dynamics develops military applications such as RBS15, Carl Gustav recoilless rifle, AT4, IRIS-T and METEOR.
		The Datasaab company was a result partly of the need of heavy computational power for the aircraft development, partly of the science-fictional idea to make a computer that would be small enough to mount in an aeroplane as navigational equipment.

	TRANSITIONAL ANTI-TANK RIFLE: THE CARL GUSTAV M/42
		There were two problems with anti-tank rifles; as tank armour rapidly thickened in the light of war experience, even the best of them proved inadequate; and attempts to increase performance led to huge, unwieldy weapons which needed a team to carry them.
		The best of the rifles - the high-velocity 14.5mm Soviet guns and the biggest of the 20mm cannon - were capable of penetrating up to 40mm of armour plate at short range, but this performance fell off rapidly with distance and even more as the striking angle departed from the vertical.
		The Swedish firm of Carl Gustav were also experimenting with recoilless weapons but with a different aim; to reduce the weight and recoil of a high-velocity, small-calibre weapon.

	Surplus Military Rifles
		I once owned a sporting rifle based on a British Lee-Enfield SMLE action, but all that was left of the original military rifle was the action itself.
		The Springfield uses a two-piece firing pin that is liable to breakage, a unnecessarily large safety lug on the bolt, a coned breech that leaves part of the head of the case unsupported, and it does not handle escaping gas nearly as well as a Mauser 98.
		I own a Mauser Model 1896 made by Carl Gustav and while I regard it as too long for most hunting applications, it is very accurate and great fun to shoot at the rifle range.

		Chris continued to scan the area with his rifle scope until something caught his attention, there was someone there walking slowly though the rubble, with a long rifle, and he looked closer at the soldier.
		In the building, Jonnie took out a Carl Gustav artillery shell while Claus was aiming the recoilless rifle, Jonnie shoved in the artillery shell and locked it in.
		Claus fired his recoilless rifle and the artillery shell flew across the base and exploded very close to the BTR-60, bouncing it slightly off the ground, almost toppling it over, but was its weight prevented that, it fell back down upright and the APC started to smoke inside.
