This video explores a pair of transitional Swiss sniper rifles developed between the K31/42, K31/43, and the eventual ZfK-55. These unique firearms feature prismatic scopes similar to the K31/43 but with a fixed front scope end and detachable scopes, a characteristic of the ZfK-55. The rifles originated from the SIG museum and represent a fascinating period of Swiss military firearm development and experimentation in the mid-20th century, bridging the gap between carbine-based sniper variants and a dedicated sniper rifle.
