Schmidt–Rubin
K11 Carbine
Schmidt-Rubin rifles were produced in a series of models and variations from 1889-1954.
Colonel Rudolf Schmidt designed the action and Eduard Rubin the 7.5X55 cartridge it would use.
The action is a straight pull design which with a straight pull by the user pulling the bolt handle to the rear and then pushing it forward would perform all the functions needed. The M1889 rifle originally adopted by the military in 1889 would eventually culminate with the K31 model being adopted in 1933.
The K11 carbine model is one of those variants that preceded the K31. Swiss rifles are known for their exacting craftsmanship and excellent accuracy. Because of their neutrality in the wars, their surplus rifles tend to be in very good to excellent condition.
