I have a thing for Swiss rifles (and most others to boot), especially late K31's, and any of the older long rifles.
Over the weekend, I again succumbed to my addiction and bought a late model K31 (240xxx). This one has a nice looking stock that I thought was walnut, but have been told is beech.
Description advised as follows:
Swiss Schmidt-Rubin Karabiner Model 1931 (K31) Straight-Pull Rifle, #240xxx, 7.5x55mm Swiss, 25.7'' barrel, blue finish, European walnut stock, with leather sling. Lightly import marked. Condition is fine to near excellent retaining approx. 96% blue on receiver. Stock shows minor dings, scratches, thinning to finish, and light oil staining. Action is crisp, bore is bright.
Also glommed this 1908 DWM Brazilian Mauser that is supposed to be in "excellent condition"with an "excellent bore"
Here is the pic from the auction site
Better pic and range report when it arrives.
