OK, Dunhams finally got me. At least they only got me for $105.99.
What I have in my posession is a beautiful Swiss K31 rifle. It was manufactured in 1953, and has a 1952 birch stock on it. All numbers match. Unfortunately (And to my dismay, I'd have liked a Swiss pen-pal) there was no tag under the buttplate
Metal is pristine, almost perfect. No Century billboard on the reciever, but there is still a new SN stamped on it . Only rifle of the six I dug through that wasn't stamped with Century on the reviever. Buling is almost all there, just a little bit of wear on the back left corner of the reciever. Bore is perfect, the only milgun that I have that has a nicer bore is my Swede Mauser.
Stock is normal for the gun, rough and water damaged. Still can't figure out why the Swiss made such rifles and neglected the stocks. Stock number matches the metal.
Anyway, a picture is worth at least as many words as I have already written, so enjoy:
Just waiting on Midway to send my 70 rounds of ammo now. Couldn't bring myself to buy a $10 box of 10 when Midway had it $22 for 60. Can you believe they were the only ones that had it in stock, and would sell it to a 19 year old? Still hate AIM and ammoman. (I take tha back, Ammunition Store had it as well. Have to hit them up at the next gunshow to save on shipping)
