Those are some real beauties LoLo! My two Swiss girls just arrived this afternoon. No time for pics yet, but as soon as I get a chance I'll post them!

[Ash]

:eek: I'm impressed LoLo. And I must say a tad bit jealous. Very impressive indeed. :grinning-thumbsup:
(I would need a bunker to store all of those)

[jd46561]

Impressive indeed!

[LoLo25643]

Those 78's are hard to find. Congratulations Wes.:)

[wkato]

Thanks all!

Sure are some nice Swiss examples in all these threads!

LoLo
I want some of your tigers!

Wes

[LoLo25643]

Tigers are addictive. If I ever got a tattoo I would have to consider tiger stripes down both arms.:D

[wkato]

And which rifle would you take in as the model?:xxrotflmao:

Wes

[RGRWJB]

These are mine:

http://swissriflewebsite.com/images/1893-1.JPG

[WmRoy]

Very Nice!!!! :D

[RGRWJB]

Here is another but its not mine. In 1940 the Swiss built 282 Swiss Neuhusssen subachineguns for the Finnish Army only. 40 of these were in 7.65 and 242 were built in 9mm. I was fortunate enough to view two of these guns on my recent trip to Finland. One had a replacement barrel made by the Finnish arsenal VKT. Here are couple of pictures of a handsome devil holding them:

http://www.finnishmilitaryguns.com/images/S5300080.jpg

[RGRWJB]

Maybe someone can help me with posting that picture. I don't seem to be able to make it work.

[BarryB]

wow those are really great i feel the need to go get something swiss for my starter collection. So Many guns so little cash....

[DOGolden]

Yo BB - you know I got a Swiss rifle & we can shoot it any time you want to dude.

[LoLo25643]

Wayne, it looks like the file extension .jpg might be missing from the link.

[wkato]

Love those M93's! Those have been on my list for sometime now and one day it will happen.

Wes

[LoLo25643]

Here's another one.

http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i111/lolo25643/k31ammo.jpg

Couldn't resist taking that one this morning before doing some shooting while I'm off from work today.

[wkato]

Love that tiger LoLo, wish I had a K31 with those stripes.

Here's my new Swiss Baby, 1881 Vetterli Stutzer.

[wkato]

Hey LoLo isn't that the K31 you were going to send me just for being such a nice guy? What year is that tigres?

Wes

[LoLo25643]

Well wes, she just didn't want to leave her home and family yet.:D

This is a 1944 from Samco that I got a while back. It's laying across one of those Swiss ammo carriers full of ammo on chargers.

[wkato]

Know what you mean there LoLo none of mine ever leave either. I also have one of those ammo pouches along with a bandoleer and a Y harness with two ammo pouches. Need to set them up and take some pics.

Wes

[jd46561]

Picked this 44 up today. I think she's purty. http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y206/jd46561/SwedeandSwiss003.jpg

Ok, those of you from swissrifles.com are probably getting pretty tired of me showing these same pictures, but I'll bet theres got to be atleast one swiss fan here who hasn't seen 'em yet.

[Bob S]

This is a "K31 look-alike" that began life as an 1889 and was converted to a .22 rimfire K11/K31 clone in Switzerland:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/BobS1/Swiss/22RF4.jpg

The rear sight is Anschutz, the front sight is W+F:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/BobS1/Swiss/22RF5.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/BobS1/Swiss/22RFWFFront.jpg

Here is the bolt face:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/BobS1/Swiss/22RFboltface.jpg

Note how far the firing pin protrudes. It also functions as the ejector.

I got this one from Stefan Mahrer (Swissdagger) a few years ago. He keeps coming up with really unique high quality stuff, and his prices (including shipping from CH) are lower than here in the US. I don't know how he does it, but I'm glad he does!

Resp'y,
Bob S.

[LoLo25643]

Now that's interesting! Was the conversion done with a barrel liner or a completely new one?

[Bob S]

LoLo:

It does not have a liner, new barrel.

Resp'y,
Bob S.

[LoLo25643]

As much as I love the .22 LR for plinking I need to get me one of these. I probably would never shoot my Win 52D again after that and I like that rifle a lot.:D

[LoLo25643]

Here's my latest from a group buy over on the C+R forum. A K11 with matching model 1914 bayonet. I shot the carbine yesterday and the action was slick as butter and shot very good groups. This group buy came from Swissdagger over in Switzerland. He has a lot of great Swiss goodies.

[Bob S]

CISM rifle built by Grunig and Elmiger (in CH) circa 1969 using a 1954-production K31 action. Chambered for 7.62 x 51 (.308 Winchester):

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/BobS1/K31/CISMK314.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/BobS1/K31/CISMK315.jpg

Sorry the stock isn't shiney and tiger-striped. Those things don;t make a rifle shoot any better. ;)

Resp'y,
Bob S.

[LoLo25643]

That's a serious looking rifle Bob. I'd like to build or have a K31 built into a target rifle like that. Looks "awsome" as my son would say and I'll bet it shoots like it's on fire.:)

[WmRoy]

WOW.............. all great stuff............... you're gonna make me want another Swiss Girl................ :) ;)

[wkato]

Picked up this Vetterli the other day.

[FrogPuddle]

I have had this pic up on another (Vetterli) site. I think it's appropriate to post it here for your viewing pleasure! It shows two Vetterlis which are only 74 numbers apart. One is a M1869 and the second an 1869/71. They were built by W. von Steiger at Thun in 1871.

It's pretty, but rather odd looking. What is this? Please enlighten the eternally "dim" among us.

[LoLo25643]

Man, that's a beauty!

[wkato]

Breath LoLo, Breath! I bet if you ask him he will send it. LOL:grinning-thumbsup:

Very nice looking rifle. Bet she brings a pretty penny.

Wes

[LoLo25643]

I see a Swiss rifle like that and my imagination just takes off running.:D

By the way, while I'm here,

Swiss K31 1939

[WmRoy]

Thanks for the photo jrfoxx!!

We like any old swiss beauty............. :D

[LoLo25643]

Thats a nice one jrfoxx. I like those early K31's from the 30's and early 40's.

[swissdagger]

Here is my favorite swiss,got it yesterday:

http://www.swissdagger.com/P3294978.JPG

[LoLo25643]

Man Alive! Thats nice. I can only dream of something like that sitting in my gun room.

[wkato]

Picked this one up a couple months ago from a local guy, says he got it in a trade and has had it for years.

1881 Stutzer with matching bayonet, bore is pretty bad, cleaned up a bit nut will never be nice. From what I can tell the original (state side) owner shot it often and never cleaned it. Couldn't pass it up since it had the matching bayo.

Looked like this when I brought her home.

Here is my current collection. I just picked up a couple more, but have no pictures yet

[LoLo25643]

Very nice collection Mondragon. You have some great examples.

[swissdagger]

Hello,
It`s a long time since my last post here.....however... here is my newest Swiss Toy :grinning-thumbsup:

http://www.swissdagger.com/PA199326.JPG

[DOGolden]

Okay I give up - what exactly is it? Perhaps the dumbest question posted today but I had to ask.

It's a 1911 of some type? Astra markings - made in Switzerland. Clue me in.

[swissdagger]

It`s the first 1911 clone made in Switzerland.
The whole Story about the new ASTRA ARMS can find on the net,google it.
Unfortunatelly their website is still under construction.
Since three months they made now guns,the most parts are made in Switzerland (CNC machined).
Found pictures of the new ASTRA pistols on another forum two weeks ago.
I contacted the company and ordered one .Few days later I picked up my new toy .
I was really surprised about the quality of it, I can`t see any casted parts, the magazines are from Italy.

We have now again three "gunmakers" in Switzerland, SPHINX , A.S.A.I. and now ASTRA ARMS .

[LoLo25643]

Man that is nice, I have not seen one of these before now.

[WmRoy]

Very nice indeed!

[archimeech]

Here's mine.

[LoLo25643]

Nice looking Gewehr archimeech!

[archimeech]

Thans, LoLo.
It's actually for sale. I'll be posting all of my stuff soon.

Nice looking Gewehr archimeech!

[TacAR]

How do you like that 1911. Is it a good shooting pistol.
