The tilted Husqvarna crown on the nosepiece is not unusual, particularly on carbines dated earlier than 1914 on the front receiver ring. (If the date was overstamped by InterArmco when it was imported, the carbine has little collector value). Carbines produced prior to 1914 were not originally fitted for bayonet mounting and were usually converted by changing the nosepiece. Husqvarna manufactured nosepieces were sometmes used in the conversion.

A complete review of the collectibility of your carbine can be obtained by posting a request, with pictures, on the Swedish Military Forum on GunBoards Forum, http://forums.gunboards.com/
