K11 Tiger

I picked this one up a couple days ago and I thought I would share.

Swiss K11 Carbine with the nicest stock I have seen in a long time! Very deep striping in the wood, and the top wood is as spectacular as the bottom.

The stock and rifle are in great shape. The barrel looks new, which is usually the case with the well looked after swiss rifles. This rifle is not too far off 100 years old. I have some nice k-31's, but the stock on this one is by far the nicest of my little collection.

Thanks for looking.

Sweet! Where did you pick it up?

 

[Cocked&Locked]

is that the original stock? refinished? it's a beauty for sure!

I haven't pulled the metal out of the stock but I assume it is original. The finish seems original and it does not look like the stock has ever been sanded.

The swiss stamp is very bold in the stock, and it has one on the top handgaurd wood that I don't remember seeing on my K31's.

I wiped the wood with a damp cloth before taking the pics so it does look a bit glossy in the outside pictures.


I purchased this rifle from Canadian Tire of all places.

I looked in the display rack first thing in the morning and this rifle grabbed my attention instantly, I could not press the little button for customer service fast enough!

Nice indeed. Might need the No D/T scope mount the bring out it full potential.

That's a nice looking rifle...I too was surprised when I saw one at a nearby Canadian Tire.

I was really surprised to find a minty one in a shop in Edmonton too. Had to pick it up, they are such a fantastic rifle, don't see many when compared to the K31. These Swiss guns are challenging my love of Lee Enfield's!
