Swiss centerfire Vetterli ammo....

The country that avoids war and the country that fights but has a hard time winning have been combined. The Swiss made some excellent firearms and the French made some unique and occasionally inspiring ones. We have added the Belgian and Dutch since they are neighbors.

Instead of 10.4X38 this is 10.4X42 and it was used in (modified) rifles for hunting.





Thanks,

Does 10.4x42 chamber in a normal Vetterli? I think I remember a post about someone shooting it out of theirs, due to the large throat of the rifle.

Thanks for you help with the pics of neat-o stuff and all....We are currently packing our bags here at Milsurp After Hours, so hopefully everyone notices the subtle flaming banners Robert has placed at the header:lol:;

..never read those, where ? <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :ms --><img src=http://x9eralpha.home.comcast.net/smile5.gif ALT=":ms">;





My guess is that sites leaving ez-boards was just the intention of that nice hacker, I think ez-boards has learned now and will invest in better security features, at least they have the money to do so.





Thanks,
