Armed Bike Ride
Swiss bicycles with the K31 rifle. The third photo displays the leather scabbard for the K31. I’ve heard and read differing accounts about how the rifles would be stored when the bicycles were actually being used. Some people have said rifles were most commonly just slung over the soldier’s back and rarely stored on the bike like the photos. Not too familiar with Swiss surplus and rifles; if anyone wants to chime in, feel free to do so. (GRH)
