The next one,

[Marlin]

I'm still working on it, I need to get my Taxes done and see how much I can spend, Then check out a few gun show's. The Puppy has been taking up alot of my time.

You mean the four legged fur bearing food processor? Karl. :lol:

[Jacobite]

My vote still goes for the K-31. Mine sure is a shooter and reloading for it is as easy as for any other caliber. Just got to mail order brass.

[Marlin]

Yes, Karl. :wink:

I keep thinking about that K-31, it is looking better and better.

[Jacobite]

Don't wait too long they are going fast. I got an original sling and muzzle cap for mine and also bought a scout mount. Now I just need a LER scope.

[Mule]

Get the K-31 from Big 5 for $80.00 and order the cap and sling on line......
Ask to see all of the ones they have in stock. Take a bore light, but chances are there will be cosmocrap plugging her up....

If you call around, you can find one of the stores that has a bunch to choose from.

K-31 is a neat rifle, the top extraction is a kick. Mine shoots 2-1/2" groups @ 100yds. Probably better. The kick is mellow too. Plan on refinishing the stock though. The pictures I saw of them were generally of them stuck butt down into a snow bank. They should have the original owners info under the butt plate too. Mine had the guys name and address. Greub Ernst.....

PS,
Marlin, I noticed you are in Westminster too.

If you go the the big 5 on East 120th, the short, dark haired, asst. manager at the gun counter will give you the sale price no matter what. I bought 5 rifles from him, all at the sale prices.

Mule, thanks for the info, Even though the thread is a Year old and I've had the K31 for about that long. [wink]

Have You been to the newer one at about 92nd and Wadsworth?
They have a decent selection also.

[Jacobite]

Marlin,
You mean you finaly bought one and never told me? Man I was up to nine of them and one 96/11 but I sold one this month and bought my first Lee Enfield.

[Marlin]

Yes, I did. Funny thing this thread is old enough that I have almost everything on it now. The only things lacking are the 1903 and the Arisaka. only because of the employment situation of the last Year.

How do You like the Enfield?
