Anyone own a Swiss Cadet carbine? I have an opportunity to buy one, trying to get a pulse on what the going price for one in good condition might be fetching these days. Plus I will need to make some ammo for it cause it does not take the same ammo as the K31 rifles.

Do these take the GP90, same ammo as the 1889?

If so, here's a starting point

They do, designed to take the full load or a lower powder load for the cadets to shoot.
