First time produced at Kongsberg Våpenfabrikk in 1967. Build on the M98 Mauser mechanism with a standard safety. In short, it is a developed M59 sharpshooter rifle. It was delivered with a stock of laminated beech. A new model of the stock came later, in 1989, also in laminated beech, but now with adjustable height on the buttstock. The new stock was not

approved for shooting competition arranged by DFS until 1 of

January 1990. You could get it both with a Busk diopter sight or

without sight. These rifles were used by many in the DFS

competitions until the Sauer 200 STR rifle came in 1990. Shortly

after the Sauer 200 came on the market virtually no one used the

old Kongsberg M67 in competitions. Since the Sauer came, all the

winners of the national championship have used that rifle.
