The K00 should be the KG00 for Kurtz Gewehr (short rifle). At some point I dream of having one of each in my collection, at this point I am getting close to having all the major swiss rifles and carbines (excluding the K93, G1889/96, KG00, and K05). Handguns I still need to work a bit more, missing all there semi-autos (1900, 1906, and 1906/29 Lugers as well as the P49).

Always nice to see photos of them as for most of us that is the closest we shall get.

Thanks for posting. I don't collect Swiss rifles, but do appreciate the workmanship and accuracy.
