Wanted Schmidt Rubin K31

[saddler]

are these all ex Andy Allwood?

Geographical proximity may suggest that the coincidence is not a coincidence

in which case I would want to see the particular rifle "in the flesh" before buying if I was looking for a "mint" version, as all of Andy's stock was "issued" as far as I am aware and will carry the normal "beaver toothmarks" on the stocks, the GP11 is worth about £33 so I might personally be tempted to look at Henry Kranks site as they are £100.00 cheaper without the GP11

NO THEY ARE NOT EX MR ALLWOOD! these are new imports.

ouch! no need to shout razz I still think that I would want to see before buying, looks to me that the same photos are used in all the adverts, the last lot of good stocks I heard about went to Aussi, although I am sure someone could have got some more out of Switzerland (advert says handling marks) and they still seem expensive to me, however the market will tell, and its good for me as mine looks like it can only go up in value

[Jon B]

Sorry about that, just gets to me that everyone assumes a certain person is the only person who had Schmidt Rubins.

These do have handling marks, but they really are in great condition, the one we purchased last night is just like new.

Yes they are fresh imports from Switzerland.

Hoping to see one on Friday. Will report back.

Called them today and I can report the search for the K31 has ended. They are transferring one to my local RFD. Thanks for all the help in tracking one down.

good news!

Went and had a shufti, all look good, woodwork variable, but none of them looked that battered anyway. Choose one, paid the cash, will get it when I've got the variation sorted.

About ten there, but I think he might have a few more than that. He's had plenty of interest, and I explained that some of it came from here.

Looking forward to shooting mine, the engineering looks very good.
