Sporterized WaffenFabrik Bern (W+F Bern Switzerland), Model: 1896/11, Cal: 7.5x55mm Swiss, MFG: 1900, S/N: 266502, straight pull bolt action rifle, 20 1/2'' barrel. The semi-pistol grip wood stock is very good as being cut down, sanded & re-finished. The added pistol grip was done to these rifles as part of the model /11 update, as it was a straight wrist stock when produced as a model 1896. The right side of the stock is marked with a Swiss crest. The rear of the comb is marked ''D2+C1'' in a box & a faint ''SOLOTHURN''. The blued metal finish on the barrel rates 85% with areas of thinning starting to tone brown. The receiver has mostly toned to a brown patina, with areas of original blue in the more protected areas. The left side of the receiver is marked with the S/N & the top of the receiver band is marked with proof stamps. The barrel is marked with more proof stamps. Bolt is S/N matched to the rifle. The bore is excellent. The rifle has no open sights, but has a scope mounting rail at the rear of the barrel. The stock carries the original steel buttplate. The stock has the original rear sling loop, while The forend has an open hole from a missing sling provision. Missing the magazine. The Swiss Schmidt Rubin rifles are renowned for their excellent accuracy, unique, slick & smooth straight pull actions, & the excellent 7.5 Swiss cartridge. This rifle as sporterized would make a excellent hunting rifle. FFL or C&R Req. - Value: 100 to 350
