Milsurps / Prohib New K31 Mint Acquired!
All matching numbers in original condition, couldn’t miss it since I never seen a k31 in such perfect condition. Figure I would share this piece!

Never seen a k31 with butt stock in such condition. Where did you find this?

Drove two hours to the annual gun show yesterday, hoping to find something, no luck. So I decided to drop by the towns local gun shop, first thing I noticed was this which was in display at the entrance of the gun show. The employees even didn’t know they had it, it was just sitting there in dust forgotten. It never even made it on to the internet website.

Even the metal parts on this one is all in new condition with stamps that are clear and visible. Usually they’re faded or scratched in lots of surplus rifles.

You did good. Now get a rack grade to shoot ;)

That one looks perfectly nice to shoot. No sense wasting money on a worst K31 instead of ammo for the good one.

I saw reliable gun had a nice one listed last week but the price was a bit much, asking $1300 if I recall.

nice, that's the price for what you got, you probably got something even nicer. The pawn shop wanted to sell me a heavily used, no bayonet, no sling, no matching parts one for 1200 🤦🏽

Thanks! That’s usually how it goes for milsuprs in shops 😂. Even ran into a broken lee enfield at a gunshop, half the stock was falling off with rust all over it and they wanted 1400$. That was four years ago too.

I was gonna say I bet that it set you back pretty far, but that’s actually a wicked good price for the condition that units in

I’ve always felt like mine is a very nice example, but it’s nothing close to this.

I'm still kicking myself for not grabbing one of these when they were 400 bucks...

K31s are so enjoyable to shoot. Very underrated amongst straight pulls. Welcome to the Swiss club.
Make sure you pull the buttstock plate to see if theres an info tag for the solider who owned it!
