Me: 100% positive on Ebay over 500 transactions.. pics: Swiss Schmidt Rubin K31 Carbine (Karabiner 1931) is a straight-pull, bolt action rifle chambered in 7.5 x 55 Swiss; a round which compares closely to the .308 NATO round (7.62 × 51 NATO). Military surplus ammunition provided- 200 rounds a 174 grain projectile at over 2500 feet per second, though rounds may be loaded from 130 grains (at over 3,000 fps) to 200 grains (2460 fps or more). The Swiss consider marksmanship incredibly important and thus designed this rifle with tight tolerances and excellent overall craftsmanship. Contrasted to the Springfield, Mossin-Nagant, and Mauser K98 rifles which were contemporary to the Schmidt Rubin K31, all of those rifles used a locking system wherein the bolt is manually rotated by the motion of the bolt handle in an “up and back, forward an down” pattern, whereas the K31 is operated with a straight back and forward motion. This allows faster shooting in combat situations, with a less pronounced arm motion, which the Swiss may have felt was prone to give a soldier’s position more readily away during combat. The K31 shines particularly in one regard: Accuracy. It is very common for Schmidt Rubin K31 rifles to shoot one MOA (minute of angle, or one-inch groups at one hundred yards, two inch groups at two hundred yards, etc.) exactly as issued.
