Saw a few pics of them online and the wood was pretty mismatched. I know the CMP said they have pitting as well.

Probably would need to drive over and see them in person.

Just curious. Thanks.

So many with pitting above the woodline and/or the heel marking almost gone from sand blasting…made me pass on the mail order option

Thanks for the info.

Good to know.

Maybe in the Fall at CMP? Let's see - for statistical reasons - five shooters, five round apiece per gun. Best 4 of 5 scored.

I've got GP11 and some 54R match ammo I can donate to the cause. Just have to find 3 other folks who will volunteer to shoot.

Great idea!

C’mon odt milsurp guys….who wants to help figure out whether the K31 or the M39 is the better shooter? I’ll sponsor a drawing of all the names who shoot for a cool prize

Is that all they have left out of the Philippine and Turkish rifles?

Or is it that they just put the better grades in the store? I did see some Expert grades online.

It’s really hard to say for sure……they’re not talking.

Back when things were less scrutinized I volunteered .

disassembled trigger groups all day and got the grand tour , great people


sadly now I think that like most good things they are under the magnifying glass

Just logical to assume if they had more rifles, they would put them online to sell too.

Perhaps it's just they can't keep up with demand, so this is the best way to deal with it.
