Yup, that's a bent bolt. Of course that rifle started its life with a straight bolt. In all likelyhood, it was altered by the Swedes during one of the many re-arsenal jobs that these things went through during their long service lives. It appears to be identical to the M38 Mauser bolts that were bent from the beginning.
