that is very nice, was it police issue? It looks to have seen very little use if at all.

very nice looking rifle, 1947 manufacture judging by the serial number, has the finish been painted? I only ask because it seems more of a black than a blued finish?

I was very fortunate when i phoned up kranks that he said he had one better than the others in a batch he had just received.....i asked to put my name on it but i had no idea about the condition. I was honestly expecting a beat up k31 with teeth marks,worn metal, name tag et al! so imagine my surprise when i first saw it.

The wear on the rifle is what i've done to it - the mag was mint inside and out and the wood work wasnt dented or marked. The bolt had no wear on it also. I honestly thought (and still do think that it was a refurb) i mean, what's it been doing for so long without being used??

I've seen one exactly the same but that was on a website in the states.
