A 96/11 conversion

The country that avoids war and the country that fights but has a hard time winning have been combined. The Swiss made some excellent firearms and the French made some unique and occasionally inspiring ones. We have added the Belgian and Dutch since they are neighbors.

A 96/11 conversion

Post by joseyclosey » Sat Feb 15, 2014 10:54 am

I heard my local dealer had taken in a .22 Schmidt Rubin so I went along expecting a K31 conversion and was surprised to find it 96/11. I got to shoot it Thursday evening and was well impressed with the accuracy.
He also had a .22 Lebel Buffalo rifle but unfortunately I didn;t get to shoot or photograph that one although hopefully I will get the opportunity to do so before it sold.
