Just got back from the folk's house after a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner (hope everyone is having a good one). Dad went out and bought himself one of those Swiss K-31's. I've never seen a straight bolt action up close, so of course I spent most of the afternoon just kinda marveling at the design. It doesn't take much to entertain me. Anywho, I got to wondering, why didn't this action catch on? I haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, but the action seems very smooth and super fast. Was there some design flaw that I'm unaware of, or was it that the militaries of the world were mostly useing the bolt action? It's coming out to te house tomorrow for a few quick shots before I tear it down and clean it up. I can't wait.
