Did these ever come with swiss/ mil issue diopters?

I love mine but would like a second with some different sights or even a cool scout scope mount type thing, without butchering or driling

I believe some K31's were originally outfitted with the Diopter sights, few and far between.  You can find diopeter sights for sale, and they are fairly expensive. A googles search will yield some results.

The Swiss rifle forum has one with diopter sights in their classified section, I don't know if it's still available, Swiss rifle forum

The Swiss military never issued diopter sights. These have been retrofitted for competition shooting and/or delivered with the so called "private"series. I'll be in Switzerland later this year and I might bring back some diopter kits. Have a very good source which makes this an interesting business opportunity.

I still don't know when I fly out... Depending on the offer I'd buy 5-10 kits and put them on gunbroker :-)
Nice stash of GP11 over there but its not easy to fly in ammo - only 5 KG per person and some airlines don't allow it at all.

GP11 seems to dry out. I saw it in France everywhere 2 years ago, now no one has it anymore.

The 'W+F' diopters mount without modifying the rifle. They go for around 300-400€ in France, maybe a bit les in Switzerland.

If you want to mount a scope. Swiss Products makes a fantastic no-mod clamp-on mount for the K31.

i have one and it works very well. Very high quality.

Yep - the mount is absolutely awesome - in particular for south paws / left handed shooters.
