Woah - 2,000 feet per second from a 1911? I wonder how that feels shooting? I hadn't heard of it before - thanks.
The 5.7x28 better look out.
On a side note, the russians had 85gr 30 cal bullet coming out of a 5 inch barrel at 1700fps with a hot load in the 30s.

Decided to try another set of grips on my MKIII. These are the same thickness as the stock grips for this new style and my initial impression is that it feels smaller in my hand. These may be for sale soon after their first range visit.
After I cleaned, reassembled, and swapped grips on my MKIII, I mounted my brand new diopter on my very old Swiss K31. I'm looking forward to learning to shoot with a diopter. Not sure my shoulder is, though. :lol:
Fuck I gotta get me a K31, before they get too expensive.
Hmmmm maybe ill come out again and shoot that! lol
You're more than welcome to come back out and chuck some lead down range. Let's set something up.

They are an amazing rifle, probably the best shooting milsurp you can get your hands on in North America. Straight pull bolt, two stage trigger, and incredibly accurate. The G11 surplus ammo is starting to get harder to find but it is probably the best surplus you can buy.
This is my second K31 - the other one I have a side-mounted scope on it. Plus I also picked up a K11 that still shoots amazing, even being over 100 years old. Recoil isn't too bad, but I do wear a shoulder pad if I plan pn shooting over 20 rounds as they only have a metal butt plate. Plus I also have the soldiers' name cards from under the butt plate, so I know who has owned these rifles from the past - which is kinda cool.
The Swiss know how to build a quality gun.
who sells them only seen old Mosin and SKS types forsale

wholesale sports had them and the ammo nice a cheap, thats where we got my buddies.
Not sure whos got em now.
I find them tough to shoot off hand since they are kinda heavy.
I bought one at WSS in Langley along with a few cases of ammo. I paid $300 for the rifle and $300 for the case of 480 rounds of G11. Retailers are asking more now for the rifles and WSS no longer sells the cases, only packages of 40 and it works out to $480 I think for the same 480 rounds.
I bought my last K31 and K11 together for $600 including shipping - so that is an alright price. Calgary Shooting Centre is bringing some in from time to time but they are now charging $400 to $600 depending on condition.
I've heard they get ordered from a distributor in the Toronto area.
