Interesting bolt action from Husqvarna built with Kricos silky smooth action; classic European design and quality chambered in the accurate and useful .222 Rem. Pleasant looking walnut stock with satin oil finish, 24" barrel with excellent bluing and very good bore, 4 round detachable box mag. These Husky/Krico collaborations, while far from common, were known for accuracy, as is the .222 Rem round.
No cracks or serious dings in the stock. Rear sight is missing but it's a common sized dovetail so easy ( and cheap) to replace. The action is factory drilled and tapped for bases.
Unfortunately the cast resin trigger guard has been cracked and repaired but seems to be solid. These Krico actions had cast polymer bolt shrouds as well, and over the years those tend to crack. That is purely cosmetic and doesn't affect performance. An enterprising Krico fan engaged a firm with a 3-D printer to make a few more robust, glass reinforced shrouds. He provided one for my own Krico and it is first class for very little money.
Asking $650 plus the freight from K0J 2N0, eastern Ontario. I don't do EMTs but money orders, bank drafts and cash are all finer than frog hair. If the posties have another tantrum I can ship via Purolator.
