The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

Can't recall where I saw the information about the small bits of paper/plastic under the butt plates of Schmidt Rubin rifles. Can anyone enlighten me? Is there a book on these rifles?

Redcat

North Cape publications do a Joe Poyer Swiss Magazine Loading Rifles 1869-1958.

Slips of paper with the owners name and contact detail were put under the butt plate in case they were left on buses and the like and could then be returned to the owner.

Sometimes they are there sometimes they are not.

my 1942 K31 had a slip under the butt plate, can recommend the book.
