Schmidt rubin 1911...

[mlw2123]

I just recently purchased one of these..which is still in transit to my F.F.L. person. It is a Schmidt Rubin 1911 Swiss straight pull bolt action rifle with a detach mag of about 5 rounds or so..but here's the even cooler part,...its been re-chambered and barreled for a .308 win by C.A.I. ! However, the barrel isn't the original 29 inch like the 7.5x55. i think it is around 20 inches or so. Have any of Y'all shot a Swiss straight pull rifle? I hear they are nearly match grade rifles..and this one seems to be in pretty good shape, especially the bore. The stock could use a good once over or two but all else show signs of normal to below normal wear. I cant wait to shoot it and hunt with it! I hear this action is actually stronger than the K31 and is tested at 90,000 CUP and passed! And that when it failed, it wasn't the action that failed but the barrel split

Interesting rifle. Lots of thes mil surp guns got rechambered. I have a 7.7 jap that was rebarreled into a .300 savage.
