    New Private series K31-with match stickers

    I've got this thing for Swissicon rifles, especially the late manufactured ones and especially the ones that have Swiss match stickers on them.

    Today I got a K31 hat trick...late manufacture, Swiss match stickers and a Private series serial number






    Description advised as follows

    Swiss Schmidt-Rubin Karabiner Model 1931 (K31) Straight-Pull Rifle, #268285, 7.5x55mm Swiss, 25.7'' barrel, blue finish, European walnut stock, with sling. Import marked. Condition is fine to near excellent retaining approx. 95% blue on receiver. Stock shows minor dings, scratches, thinning to finish, and light oil staining. Action is crisp, bore is fine. Minor corrosion near rear sight should clean easily.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Beautiful! If forced to select only one Milsurp to collect the Swissicon K-31 would be in the top three if not number one.Swiss watches that shoot. Did you see this posting?

    That is an interesting post.

    The K31icon arived at my FFL last week and I got a good look at it before it went in his safe for the 10 day cooling off period. It looks pretty good and the bore is...ooh-la-la

    I'll post a range report when I get it out of jail.
