They couldn't just make a new brake action? They had to ruin an amazing antique rifle? Oh the gun-manity!

The recycling of old military arms is a long standing practice.
There is good news, I hear there is a large amount of GP11 inbound at some point in 2019.
Swiss 7.62x51 has recently shown up so hopefully the 7.5x55 follows.

I would hope that they are using rifles that are in a state of disrepair.
On a side note, this reminds me of how my C&R collection isnt complete until I collect a few swiss straight pulls.

K31s are still cheap. I may get one again when the GP11 hits the market.

Adding another caliber to the list of ammo I need to keep stocked is whats stopping me. And,
Unfortunately (for my bank account) my brain is fixated on finishing my collection of U.S. rifles. Still need a Krag, and 03a3, to go with my Garand and my 1903. And hopefully a M1A when I'm in a situation where its legal to own one.

I love my K-11 and K-31, took my first buck with my 31 dropped it in its tracks.

Cant beat the trigger on either one, especially for the age or being a military rifle

Oh, you have one, that's right. How much?
Beech or walnut stock?
Have you any GP11 to go with?
