I can remember seeing the older SR 89/11s for $10.95 in the Sears catalog when I was a kid. The older rifles were looonnnnnnggggg old guns, and probably too heavy for a little guy like I used to be, but it sure caught my eye. Those were NOT K-31s and I seem to recall they weren't very strong in comparison to the newer rifles. They were pretty homely, too. I REALLY wanted an Argentine 1891 carbine, but I was just a little kid then.
All that said, you could buy all kinds of accessories and diopter sights and scope mounts, etc, from Graf & Sons of Mexico, MO a few years ago, they had all those items covered really well, AND ammo, too. For whatever reasons, Graf's was into the K-31s pretty heavily, I think they were the only source at the time.
