Reference: finding Reference information: https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/britishmilitariaforums/swiss... . Both have the strongly curved buttplates of "Scheibenstutzer" i.e. target rifles. And both have the backsights set in a dovetail. The anonymous Swiss has very fine damascene lines (about 0.5mm thick). Both have a screw for adjusting the let-off of the double set trigger, something which I cannot see on the rifle under discussion. There must be such a screw, to adjust the let-off to a safe setting. Of course, this screw may be lost, which would explain the "hairy" trigger. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 49 mins (2020-11-19 23:15:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ...
