Lot 25458:
Schmidt Rubin K31 7.5x53
Long known as probably the most desirable of the Swiss straight pulls. Although the K31 is a straight-pull carbine, it was not designed by Colonel Rudolf Schmidt (1832-1898) like its predecessors, as he was not alive to do so. The K31 was a totally new design by Eidgenossische Waffenfabrik in Bern, Switzerland under Colonel Furrer, and the gun does not have the Schmidt-designed 1889 or 1896 action. This numbers matching K31 is stamped ?+M? on the barrel. The rifle is in very good condition and appears to function as designed. Please see photos.
