You've never seen one like this before! A unique sample pistol built up years ago by famed William B. Edwards of Benet Arms in San Francisco. It's partly a Browning HP frame with a P.38 frame (and grips) grafted to the back and topped by a Colt 1911 slide. No barrel. Bill was working out some design ideas with this combination, that may have gone no further. Hand stamped "Benet Arms" and "0002". This will be your only opportunity to own a Browaco Pistol! (Browning/Walther/Colt). Amaze your friends! From the estate of Bill Edwards.

A very few Schmidt-Rubin K-31 Carbines in .30-06 were made in a small special order (20 guns) for the Swiss Shooting Team in Mexico City in 1971. All were commercial models with a "P" prefix serial (Privat) in the P269,5xx range. These were marked ".30/06" on barrel ring. I'm able to offer some of the original individual Mexican Registration Cards issued by the Secretary of National Defense to the Swiss Team. Each card lists the specific serial number. If you own a rifle, you will want a Registration Card to document it's source!
