First K31!

[Bobby Ricigliano]

First I want to say hello! I'm new to the gun owning buisness, I purchased a K31 from Simpson Limited, and I was wondering if anyone here knows a bit about the K31. I've done a lot of research on it, and my particular weapon is 1942 beechwood, which is interesting because I've heard Walnut was the preferred standard stock before 1944.

It comes off the ten-day hold tomorrow, I can't wait to check it out. I want to make sure it's mechanically safe to fire first, are there any things I need to worry about visually before I take it out to the range?

While always a good idea to inspect any firearm you buy, I can't imagine you would get a Swiss rifle from Simpsons that was defective or unsafe to shoot.

Oh, and congratulations.
