Well, just when I thought having two K-31's was enough, I got sucked into AIM Surplus' recent ad of a "very limited and fine" number of K-31's. I currently have a 1941 in a walnut stock and a 1963 private series in beech. The 1941 has a St. Marie clamp on scope … so in my warped logic I figured I needed a completely stock (no scope) K-31 in a walnut stock (even though the scope comes right off).
AIM has them for $329, which I realize is at the top of the market price right now. I also paid an extra $20 hand select to get the earliest serial number (aka oldest) they had in stock.
Am I nuts for paying $350+S/H for a 3rd K31? I keep getting the sense that we are nearing the end of K-31 import availability. Combined with an increased awareness of how incredibly well-built and accurate these rifles are, I can only imagine their value will continue to rise.
