K31 at Auction

If only I had more money.

Today's gun auction offered a very nice, clean, all matching K31 with walnut stock and original sling. I figured this rifle would not do well but my hands were tied. I was after the rifle after it and I could not possibly come out of there with both.

$200.00

A Soviet M44 sold for $300.00. They got $200.00 for a Chinese M53.

The people at this auction tend to make little sense.

I did get the rifle I was after. I'll post pics when I get a chance. I finally got my Finn M39.

Based on prices around here the K31 was stolen. The M44 buyer was badly beaten.M53 they would have had to pay $100 for me to clean it.

That's cheap for a walnut stocked K31. That should have brought at least 350, but You'll enjoy the Finn M39.....Great rifle!
