Note the tilted crown on the front sight base indicating it was made at Husqvarna, where this rifle was likely converted from an M96 to an M38. This rifle is threaded to accept the blank firing attachment. Note the muzzle and clear plastic thread protector. This rifle is sighted for the older M94 ammo. Rifles sighted for Torped ammo will have a "T" stamped into the sight base. This one, however, retains an inverted-V blade. Most front sight blades were changed from the original inverted-V sights to squared post sights at the time rear sights were changed to U-notches. Originally, M96 sights had "V" blades, but all rifles were converted to the "U" notch in the late 1940's. Note the U-notch on the rear sight blade. The sight ladder is mismatched, a common occurrence on converted M38's. Also, the sight slide was removed when the Vasteras insert was installed. It is a simple micrometer insert meant to improve accuracy. Vasteras rear sight insert as retrofitted to M96's and M38's without the Torped M41 ammunition sights. Note the straight bolt handle indicating this M38 was converted from an M96. This rifle was originally inspected when new, as an M96, by Artillery Captain Olof Darling Gibson, initials O.G.
