Those are some sophisticated sights. I have not seen them like that before. How is the rear sight mounted? Those are usually worthy of better sights than standard military sights.

Is that from St Marie?

Nice one, love the sight. Now you need to get a bayonet for it. The Swiss know how to make a beautiful blade.

What is St. Marie ? It from the PRC, (Peoples Republik of California)

Yes, I'll be looking for one.
Have a muzzle cover already.
Had Hornady dies but never like the pull thru expander or the fall out seating plunger.
RCBS is for the 1890 not K31 chamber, Lees are way undersize so it's gonna be Redding with which you can never go wrong.

Pierre St Marie I think. Son named Latigo, also I think. Kalispell, Montana, 1-406-858- 2066,They manufactured no drill scope mounts for the K31 and I believe they branched out into Iron Sights at some point. Swiss Products Is the name of the company, They are showing a similar sight on their web site.

Oh yeah, I know Swiss products well.

It's also fascinating to see what is being done with K31s. Lots of neat stuff on UTube. To avoid compex machining people are stubbing off the original bbls and threading them up for rebarreling.

For folks "over there" who have to do with what they have, some really neat rifles have/are made.
