Description
07/02/26 - This is the desirable, private series variation of the legendary Swiss Waffenfabrik Bern K31 rifle, chambered in 7.5x55mm Swiss. P-Series examples were the only K31s made for the commercial market and constitute a very small subset of total K31 production. Only 300 private series K31s were manufactured in 1961, the year this example was made. The rifle is all matching, with the serial number stamped crisply on the receiver, bolt, and magazine. It has the proper Swiss proofs and inspection marks. The metal is in excellent condition, retaining the vast majority of its finish, showing scattered light handling marks and blemishes. There are areas of speckling and minor thinning on the bands, sight components, magazine, and bayonet lug. The buttplate shows more concentrated scratches, spotting, and handling wear. The stock is also very clean, but shows slightly more wear than the metal, with scattered dents, scratches, a few darkened rub spots, and a lighter patch of wear near the Swiss stock cartouche. The bore is excellent, shiny with sharp rifling, and minor signs of use. Comes equipped with a leather sling.
