Swiss K31
This video focuses on the Swiss K31 rifle, a straight-pull bolt-action rifle that served as the standard-issue firearm for the Swiss armed forces from 1933 to 1958. The description highlights its 6-round detachable magazine, its chambering in 7.5×55mm Swiss Gewehrpatrone 1911 (GP 11) ammunition, and its lineage within the Swiss Schmidt–Rubin rifle family. It also clarifies that while based on the Schmidt-Rubin system, the K31 itself was a new design by Eidgenössische Waffenfabrik in Bern under Colonel Adolf Furrer, and not directly by Colonel Rudolf Schmidt. The rifle's replacement by the Stgw 57 is also noted.
