My friend got a warning from God. He said "Tell my people I am coming back soon, and read your Word". Here are some verses I recommend reading~ Matthew 7:21-23 Matthew 4:17 Acts 2:17 Joel 2:28 James 2:17-26 Acts 16:31 I recommend writing them down and truly meditating on them. 22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. -James 1:22-25 Tomorrow isn't promised, BUT, God being a loving and forgiving Father is and always will be, don't wait until later or tomorrow. Gods kingdom is at hand! ❤️

@@sanfordwillis63 Laugh, it was clear that such an answer comes 😂😂 The K31 you get here for CHF 150 - 300.- So better buy one, so for me 😉

I ordered a scopeless K.31 in Feb. 1963 from a catalog that was advertised in a Field & Stream at the barbershop. The cost was around $22 including shipping, and it arrived early March. I used saved allowance and birthday money to buy it for my 11th birthday. A perfectly legal purchase at the time, and the same method used by Lee Harvey to buy his Carcano. My mother insisted on no ammo (I had no idea how to get any) and then my father had it swapped for a .22 cal Marlin Model 60 with a 4x scope after he returned from extended Naval Air Reserve duty. A more suitable starter for a kid, I suppose. But the bolt on that K.31 was really "Space Age" with the ring safety and beer-can charger. I was the only kid on my block who owned a fully functional military weapon, if only for about three weeks.

I had my schmidt-Rubin k41 converted to .308x51 mm. It's accurate and handles fast. Think of it as a semi auto bolt action!

My favourite ww2 service rifle. The k31. As a lefty, I appreciate that they made an adaptor for the bolt handle for us. Not to mention that crisp trigger.

Not sure I’ve ever seen a K31 in person - but guessed. Looks almost like my k1911. However you shoot infinitely better than I do.

I own one of these bad boys-- got into a small bidding war on Gunbroker in 2015 to get it... But the Swiss arms were head and shoulders above practically every other serviced rifle of the era. That trigger in just your average grunt's bolt action! 🤩

I'm Swiss, here in Switzerland you can buy one in good condition for ~100chf (~110$) perfect condition for 300-800chf but many people have inherited one from their gramdfather or father. it is a really cool rifle!

@softair3003 Is that the cost for an SFK 31/42 in the video or just a standard K31? I'm looking for the bayonet, leather, "frog"sheath, belt, and mag pouches that would be issued with the K31. Such a great rifle.

@mishimposble the zfk is a little bit more expensive but still cheaper than what you said (in switzerland) for bayonets and stuff it depends on the serial number and the condition ;) you can have a bayonet between 50 - 300.- where are you from?

@softair3003 thanks, usa

It's obviously to start the engine

It’s actually pretty dumb because it’s so inconvenient that most soldiers would just leave it on fire

Yeah, there's a reason why safeties are easy/quick to manipulate. Besides, anybody intelligent enough to be issued one of these isn't gonna ND their foot.

@@amtree4140 for Assault rifle or pistols, you would be right, but this is a sniper. it wouldnt help you if you could disengage the safety in the blink of an eye if an enemy jumps you. you wouldnt have a chance in close range combat with a fucking sniper. the only time you use this is for long or maybe even mid range engagements and you will take a lot of time per shot so theres no problem in taking your time for disengaging the safety.

You know absolutely nothing about real world combat. The person who stated they would most likely leave the safety off is correct but only in areas where a close quarters ambush or “being jumped” as you call it are likely. Often troops will leave poorly designed safeties off or use them in a different manner than intended. Your knowledge is obviously from video games, mine is from decades of research, training and real world experience so don’t bother trying to argue. A bolt gun like this is almost as effective as a pump shotgun in close quarters as far as speed and even the average civilian knows shotguns are great at close range. The video games you play handicap weapons to make your weapon choice part of the game. Guns are horrible in these games in ways they are amazing in real life and good in ways that are absurd. Good news for you is you can study up on real world guns and it will give you some concepts that will improve your gaming skills, that’s also good news for men like me who cringe when we hear young men make claims like you just did.

Shows how much you know

Steyr and Lee Navy are also commonly known straight pull bolts. Browning makes a T-Bolt 22lr that is straight pull.

Im gunna share my knowledge because I love these guns and have one of my own. They have the longer rifle variant, the k11 which is most identifiable by the wooden barrel on the bolt. The k31 has the aluminum and is the shorter carbine rifle

@@kadedorsey5038you are right but is not wood, its a rubber.

@@klausb1758Yea but they aint swiss Kinda wish there are more straight pull bolts its pretty neat

@@kadedorsey5038 Not quite. The K11 has the same dimensions as the K31, and the charging handle a hard rubber or bakelite type material. The longer variant is the original Swiss 1911 rifle. All three use the same cartridge and action type. The 1896/11 is an even older version of the long rifle, but has the same straight pull action and also uses the 7.5x55 Swiss.

Oh, and excellent shooting BTW.

There you go again...

As a left handed shooter, I can honestly say the K31 is pretty friendly for a bolt gun.

@@792slayer possible, but with left side mounted scope not so... I use K98 w/o scope and can run it lefthanded no problem, but top mounted scope would be problem for cycling bolt with left hand but still usable for shooting, but if scope would be mounted on left side of gun then would be unusable for me... And on top of all that, my right eye is dominant which causes problems for me when shooting pistol/revolver :S

@@426Torello cross eye dominance does pose a unique set of challenges. They also make a clamp on mount for that gun that goes on the right side of it and mounts a regular scope.

@@792slayer yes, I know, friend uses it in that setup to compete in C&R scoped class... One time using original swedish ammo, he had few points better score with it than best score in open class same distance... And keep in mind that C&R even had limited scope magnification, to 8 or 10x max, I don't remember any more...

@@426Torello nice! The surplus ammo for those is really pretty good. To the point I didn't really bother hand loading for it.

@Fletcher9876 I wasn't in vietnam, and I read the story about him 30yrs ago when my mother had a picture frame made with his medals and the article. My uncle doesn't talk about his tours, what I know about it is from his son who wasn't in the military and my mother who doesn't know the difference between a shotgun and a pistol. I don't care what makes sense to you and what doesn't, those men are actual hero's, not tough guys behind a keyboard, so show some respect. If you think I made up a story about my late grandfather and uncle, search Frank W. Carlson and I'm sure you'll find some info on his service. Also, gfys ya disrespectful tubby bitch

So I'll be the second person to ask: what good is a machine gun against artillery that is miles away. I'm not buying the story. This is the part where he refuses to reply...

It's probably in the top 20 today considering its well established shortcomings. And maybe it was in the top 5 as far as military bolt actions. Buts it's certainly nowhere near the best bolt action rifle ever made or even mass produced. The Schmidt Reuben action is interesting but rather cumbersome in reality. To work the action fast you have to be strong and follow up shots won't be as accurate because of it. It's a very accurate rifle in competent hands because of its trigger . Which is without question the best ever used in a military rifle. It's difficult and almost impossible to find 7.5×55 ammo for it . And the ballistic performance is basically the same as .308 or military 7.62x54 . Which isn't worst performing but is far from the best or even considered to be one of the best as far as ballistic performance for a bolt action rifle. The k31 has never been combat tested . Rumors have claimed some were used by Finland against Russia but neither country's records prove it true or even mention it. The Schmidt Reuben action Which the k31 action is . Isn't as strong as or smoothly operated as a Mauser action even though the k31 is a straight pull action. There's a very good reason modern bolt action rifles are based on the Mauser action and not the Schmidt Reuben designed action. The k31 is a cool rifle and a accurate rifle but it's by no stretch of the experienced rifleman imagination the best bolt action rifle ever made. It's not even close proof is in the lineage of modern rifle design being the Mauser Action

Rubbish the Mauser 98 is still the best rifle ever made on its. Own combined with better calibres it’s incredible there is better modern. Rifles but probably has a 98 bolt action or modernised version

@@GorillaCookies So what is the best bolt ever produced..sez yu?

@@Rhinoch8what optic is that?

@@bonk2560it does not come with stock. I don't know. I'd say it's a specialty item that is difficult to find.

God damn it, Gump! You're a god damn genius! This is the most outstanding answer I have ever heard. You must have a goddamn I.Q. of 160. You are goddamn gifted.

Its not simplicity, its a much more complicated style of bolt action, which is way its not that common. There are multiple straight pull bolt actions throughout history, and there are modern ones made today, but their complexity made them much more costly to manufacture compared to the regular bolt action.

I love mine! Sadly, haven’t seen GP-11 in years. Been having to shoot commercially available 7.5x55mm.

@@kugelsicher5721 I hand loaded for mine too, but I was new at it and the GP-11 was as accurate as my reloads and cheaper.

@@vekicro87 well they also lack the D's we have screwing things up and putting kids on ssri meds because they think they need to act like females.

I think once you've built a straight-pull bolt, you're like 75% of the way to having a gas operated automatic action anyway, so I guess maybe gun makers at that point just think why not go all the way and make one of those instead?
