Swedish police have seized 31 firearms, over 14,000 rounds of ammunition, and a large collection of Nazi-related memorabilia during a raid at the home of a 37-year-old Danish-Swedish man in Gullringen, near Kalmar, Sweden. The man has been charged with serious weapons offenses, as well as the possession of narcotics and explosive materials. The case is scheduled to be heard in Kalmar in November. According to investigation documents obtained by the Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR), the case began in late 2025 when police encountered the man and his brother in Gullringen. Officers reported that the man appeared highly nervous and showed signs of drug use, which prompted the subsequent search of his home and a storage facility to which he had access. The seized arsenal included six shotguns, three semi-automatic pistols, and two semi-automatic rifles. Alongside the weapons, police discovered Nazi-era items, including large swastika flags, SS insignia, uniforms, and a bust of Adolf Hitler, which was displayed next to a small Danish flag. While the possession of such memorabilia is not illegal in Sweden, the man faces charges for the possession of a bomb casing, twelve tear gas canisters, 96 signal flares, and detonating fuses. Prosecutor Jacob Semark described the seizure as one of the most extensive weapons caches ever discovered in Sweden. Police also reviewed the man’s phone, which contained communications with an associate regarding their shared interest in World War II. The records include messages containing phrases such as “death to all Jews” and discussions about celebrating Hitler’s birthday on April 20. In a video recorded by the man in December 2024, he is seen displaying his collection, ending the recording with a Nazi salute and the words “Heil Hitler” and “death to all Jews.” The defendant denies being a Nazi, claiming his interest in the items is a hobby dating back to childhood and that he also collects items related to communism. His father confirmed to police that the family has a long-standing interest in weapons and hunting, noting that the defendant’s great-grandfather was an SS officer, which he suggested contributed to the son’s interest in Nazi artifacts. The defendant admitted to the weapons charges but disputes that they should be classified as “serious.” He stated that many of the weapons were obtained from a deceased uncle in Denmark and that he lacked the necessary permits for them. He is not charged with planning an attack.
