Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Husqvarna/Smith & Wesson Model B is a highly collectible bolt-action rifle that emerged in 1969 and was discontinued in 1972, and is a part of the short-lived series of imported sporting rifles. Manufactured by Husqvarna in Sweden and marketed by Smith & Wesson in the United States, the Model B was built on a refined Husqvarna 1900 push-feed action—a modern evolution of their earlier 1640 design. This action is celebrated for its smooth bolt throw and a feed mechanism that departs from the traditional Mauser-style controlled feed, instead employing a “push feed” system that many shooters find exceptionally reliable and crisp in operation. Typically chambered in popular American hunting calibers, including .270 Winchester and .308 Winchester, the rifle features a cold hammer-forged barrel that's 20 3/4-inches long, which testifies to its robust European construction. The Model B’s aesthetics are equally compelling, with a European Monte Carlo walnut stock featuring distinctive checkering and a cheekpiece, complemented by a Schnabel-style forend that underscores its blend of form and function.

Produced in limited quantities during its brief production run, the Model B not only delivers exceptional accuracy and smooth handling but also embodies a fascinating juncture in firearms history where traditional Mauser design elements were successfully merged with innovative push-feed technology. This unique combination of American branding and Swedish manufacturing excellence has cemented the Model B’s reputation as both a precision hunting instrument and a valued piece of collectible arms history
