Show off your Swiss Rifles!

[vellnueve]

I somewhat recently managed to acquire a couple of very nice Swiss rifles to add to my pair of K31s. Hadn't had time to take pictures though due to a very busy two months.

Post your Swiss rifles here!

K11 that I only paid $160 for.

and my tiger striped K31.

Bad picture, I really need to take another one of this beauty to really show the striping in the stock.

USMA-82, do you load your own GP90?

My 96/11 has some tiger striping but nothing like Milsurps

USMA-82, do you load your own GP90?

Yup. Slight case trimming and reduction in powder, but works fine. You don't see any reloading data in today's manuals, but I found several recipe's online and tried them. So far, so good.

Next time I bring the old girl out to the range, I will bring the chronograph to see what kind of speeds I'm getting.
