swiss K31

[PeterN]

A few pics of my Schmidt-Rubin K31 rifle. This one was made in 1943 and refurbed in 1957. It is very accurate. It has the tag under the but plate. It was issued to a cook in a cycle regiment. It has a neat wood repair on the left side I presume from the refurb.

Regards

They are nice, very accurate for a service rifle, and the trigger, despite the long pull, is very consistent.

Nice one Peter, another gem out of the cupboard!

gloves and sub zero weather don't sit well with short/zero pull triggers

I can attest to this (well not the sub zero part) but having handled a friends accuracy international with an upgraded trigger whilst wearing winter gloves resulting in a ND-never have that issue with my K31.

That is a good looking K31, I have a few Schmidt Rubin rifles, just not a K31 (Yet)

I’m not a lover of mil-surp rifles, but the K31 is one that I’ve always fancied. Well that and the No5. The rest tend to leave me, ....meh. I have a Jungle Carbine in the cabinet, so perhaps one day I’ll add a K31.

Yours is a very nice example.

Fair point, well made.

Very nice - thanks for sharing. I have a 1954 made K31, also with a troop tag. I've recently installed a left hand operating rod to make it easier for me to cycle the bolt. May well do a little post about it soon.
