Firearms from Sweden

The AT4 is a Swedish 84mm disposable single-shot anti-tank recoilless rifle developed by Saab Bofors Dynamics. It is the standard-issue light anti-armor weapon for the U.S. military (as the M136) and many NATO forces, replacing the M72 LAW.

The Carl Gustaf M4 is a Swedish 84mm multi-role, reusable, shoulder-fired recoilless rifle. Unlike disposable anti-tank weapons, the Carl Gustaf fires a wide variety of ammunition types including anti-armor, anti-structure, anti-personnel, smoke, and illumination, making it one of the most versatile infantry support weapons in the world.

A Swedish license-built version of the Belgian FN MAG general-purpose machine gun. It has been the standard Swedish machine gun for decades.

A Swedish-British disposable anti-tank missile system designed for one-man operation. It uses a unique overfly top-attack guidance system.

The AK4D is a Swedish‑manufactured, designated‑marksman variant of the AK4 family, itself a licensed copy of the Belgian FN FNC. Developed for the Swedish Armed Forces, the AK4D combines the proven gas‑piston, rotating‑bolt system of the original assault rifle with a longer 508 mm (20 in) barrel, a side‑folding stock, and a built‑in bipod, optimizing it for precision fire at extended ranges (600–800 m). Intended primarily for military use as a squad designated‑marksman rifle, the AK4D features a free‑floating barrel, enhanced trigger pull, and provision for optical sights such as the Hensoldt 4×24 telescopic sight. Its reputation in the firearms community rests on reliability, cold‑weather performance, and ease of maintenance, while its modularity allows quick conversion back to a standard AK4 configuration. Unique characteristics include the integrated bipod, a longer sight radius, and a specially milled gas block that reduces recoil impulse, making it a distinct bridge between standard assault rifles and dedicated sniper platforms.

The Swedish M/1692 Flintlock Musket was a .70 caliber smoothbore musket adopted by the Swedish Empire during the reign of King Charles XI. It featured a robust iron-mounted stock and an early flintlock mechanism. The weapon was the standard-issue arm of the Caroleans, the soldiers of Charles XII.

The Carl Gustav m/45, commonly known as the Swedish K, is a Swedish submachine gun designed by Gunnar Johnsson with a distinctive tubular receiver and fixed perforated barrel jacket. It was renowned for its extreme reliability, simplicity, and ease of field stripping without tools. The m/45 was widely exported and saw extensive service with U.S. special forces in Vietnam.
