I picked up this cut M95 at a gun show a few years back. It cost me next to nothing and is still waiting in line for a total redo. I also picked up some ammo for it which is getting scarce. Most of it is old Nazi stuff.
These are one of the "straight pull" rifles, similar in action but much smaller bolt than a K31. It will stay a cut stock as trying to resolve that issue will cost more than the rifle.

Having had both, other than the fact that both are straight pull, that's where the similarities end. The Swiss rifles are pieces of fine engineering and craftsmanship. The M95s not so much. I used to have an M95 (carbine) and also one of the long rifles. I got rid of them, mainly just to get out of that caliber. Nothing wrong with them though.

8x56r yes, I know, a real common round. Also the magazine is like a Carcano where it has a clip that you load and the spent clip drops out the bottom when empty.

All my clips and ammo have the Nazi 'dirtybird' on them so I am not real eager to find out how it shoots.
