The Karabiner Model 1931 (K31), also known as a k31 swiss rifle, is a magazine-fed, straight-pull bolt-action rifle. This rifle was the standard issue, from 1933 to 1958, for soldiers of the Swiss armed forces. The first rifles were used in by Swiss troops, in a trial program, in 1931 thus the reason for the model number.
The K31, the majority of which were used in World War II, was replaced in 1958 by the SIG-510. Since 2006, the K31 has been available for the consumer market.
