    If you have a K-31, that is the model, and they are in caliber 7.55 x 55 SWISS. Excellent cartridge, does not interchange with any others. There is still Swiss Milsurp ammo available- getting scarce, get some. Non-corrosive, very accurate. Some reading for you on your rifle: http://www.surplusrifle.com/swissk31/index.asp

    If you have not done so, check under the buttplate for a slip of paper. Soldiers frequently had their name and address under the buttplate- in case you should forget, and leave your rifle on the streetcar, it could be returned to you. [:p]
