Finally picked myself up a k31.. 1953.. A little beat up,but nothing a little TLC cant fix.. The bores on these things are mint

One of my Buddies hunts with a K31. He loves it and all his other rifles became dusty since he picked it up.

Welcome to the club.
That will look great after stripping the shellac with alcohol and new shellac.
Nice grain on that beech stock.

Finally got the P-26 I wanted! I already had two P-27 (one blued, the other one "in the white") but the P-26 was constantly eluding me.
Now, thanks to a very fine CGN gentleman, I finally secured one:

Very nice shiny bore, walnut one-piece stock (looks like a N.E.W. English Contract one) and a funny calendar on the left side of the comb.

PP.

Days of service for some soldier maybe? lol
Or kill count.....

They say buy the gun, not the story but that is still pretty interesting/cool.

There was no story: i discovered the marks while cleaning and inspecting the rifle.

I think it's a calendar. Why would a guy make groups of four enemies instead of five? four looks more like 4 weeks in a month.

Four verticals and one diaginal is a count of five, no? still tres cool.

 

[bushwhacker]

Got a P1 from Tradex. Fast service, nice condition. Looks like it has been refurbed. Think I will have to hoof or snowmobile in to the gun club to try it out. Can't wait until sping!

 

[stencollector]

Been pretty slow around here what with the arctic weather and all so I made a call and bought one of these:

Forgive the crappy pictures, but they are from google street view courtesy of Cantom. They are 90mm anti aircraft guns (deactivated).
I have been wanting one of these for a while now but was waiting for someone else to buy one in my neck of the woods. I finally found someone else as crazy as me, so we each bought one and will split the shipping this spring.

Crap! I see those two pieces on a regular basis. I'll miss them, alot!

Just could not convince the wife that those godawful gnomes in the front yard should be replaced with those two pieces of history. I think the fact we have a church across the street had something to do with it, I think.

Well, if that diagonal counts for one too, that would be another possibility.
