Schmidt–Rubin Model 1911 Rifle
An improvement over the original 1889 version of the Schmidt–Rubin rifle, the Swiss
M1911 placed the locking lugs in the middle of the bolt, rather than at the rear,
strengthening the action and allowing a more powerful cartridge, the Gewehrpatrone
11 or GP 11 to be used.
It is distinguished from the 96/11 rifle by a curved buttplate and by a stock with an
integral semi-pistol grip. It uses a graduated tangent sight which begins at 300
meters.
The 1911 and 96/11 rifles are characterized by exceptional accuracy and were
made with excellent craftsmanship. The fact that Switzerland remained neutral
through both world wars ensured that they are in far better condition, on average,
than the rifles of other European nations from that vintage

This unit was hand selected and has all numbers matching.
Stock has great patina with Tiger Stripe showing through, does have the usual bumps
and sctraches for a uit of this age.
Bore is excellant and a wonderfully accurate shooter.

Comes with an original leather sling ..
