Getting a K31!

[jonathon]

My dad just called.. he on a whim stopped by Big 5.. they had a nice Walnut K31 for $80 with excellent metal and a nice bore. It's only missing the rear sight, but I think I can scrounge another one :)

You will like the K31's. I have two of them. A beech stock and a walnut stocked one. Even if you can't find a rear sight(I'm sure you can)you can put a scout mount on it and scope the rifle like I did on one of mine. You have to remove the rear sight for this mount anyway.

Get ya a scout mount and scope it, then you don't need the rear sight.

Enjoy :)

What scope would you recomend for sub $100?

I won a rear sight on ebay(yay!), but I figure I might get the easy scope mount for kicks.

I'm not sure if it's walnut, but I don't care. This one is not a looker..

SWEET! I love mine, and I sure hope you enjoy yours. :)

I was thinking about buying one of those from Big 5 also. The one store around me that had them didn't have very good looking ones. Your's looks good though.

It's got some finish wear, but the bore is superb! When I get my rear sight and ammo, can't wait to shoot it.

The S&K scope mount is on my list I think... especially if this gal shoots real good.

i love my k31, its one of the smoothest actions out there.

there is only one problem i keep having with it. the bolt will stick in the rearward position too much, and too quickly.

the only solution i have been able to find to fix this problem is to load another 6 rounds and empty the gun again ;)
