about 7-10 years ago we got a bunch of 8x63 Swedish ammo it came in 1750 rnd crates on 1940's dated 250 rnd cloth belts back then it was $99.99 Canadian a 1000

its now $200.00 Canadian for 1250 rnds on belts still a deal

did you guys in the U.S ever get this stuff? its super hot I ran about 7K thru my 1919 semiauto with ZERO misfires

it requires a 8x63 barrel and you need to open up your booster

heres a site about it http://archive.is/NbIE

and here is the dealer in Canada selling it but not to the U.S (sorry) http://www.marstar.ca/dynamic/product.jsp?productid=103315

Wow, I would have use for my 1917 barrel chambered in that. Have to keep an eye out if it shows up in the US as well

Did your 1917 come in that cal? it was not a common cal as only Sweden used it

From a Swedish Kulspruta (their Browning Watercooled), I would probably need to either turn the barrel front end to fit my 17a1 or modify the barrel sleeve at the end of the waterjacket. Bought it in a deal where I misread the caliber in the add. Good swedish steel. Some guys would reform .30-06 brass with 8mm projos to make Wildcat rounds for these.

SARCO has these barrels for sale. I see they even lowered the price from a few years ago

do those barrels from sarco fit the browning 1919??? if so at that price it might be worth it for me to have a few exported to Canada if state depart approves......

They dont fit an a4. Youd need to make a sleeve for both the trunion and bearing end.

At ten cents a round I can make a new gun for the price difference in a few crates.

What would you be selling the belts for?

 

[TiredIron]

If anybody is interested.....I have four of the Swede 8X63 barrels (new original surplus barrels) for $200 ea shipped to CONUS...or I'll make someone a deal on all four. I was going to turn them down into MG34 barrels but that project went cold.

I am also looking for the 8x63 Swed M32 Bofors, if anyone in the States has some they won’t mind parting with I would sure be very grateful to you, I would be happy with just some brass to help me with my Mauser build. Thank you all and a safe & happy New Years to everyon.
