Well here is my first post.
My family acquired a good amount of guns from a late great grandpa, and I just now decided to take a good look at some of them. Going through I found this rifle that intrigued me a lot... It looked a lot like a swiss k31 (and im pretty sure it is swiss because it's covered in little crosses!) but the stock didn't seem the same, and the holes drilled for the scope mount looked a little peculiar (at least to my eyes), but what got me the most was the fact that it's in 308! Now thats where i got confused... Now my great grandpa was a little out there, and a few of his guns he had done a bit of his own "gunsmithing" on (which I wouldn't doubt if he drilled into the action himself) but this gun left me puzzled. Maybe some of you guys who are familiar with swiss weapons, schmidt rubin, ect. can shed a bit of insight to my situation? Would love to know more about this gun.
