The Swiss only used 3 (or 4) infantry rifles in the last 100 years +
K11 / K31 with GP 11 ammo (7.5 X 55)
Sig 510-1 (assault rifle 57) with GP 11 ammo (7.5 X 55)
Sig 550-1 (assault rifle 90) with GP 90 ammo (5.56 NATO)
All the two digits military numbers being the years of introduction
I am sure you’ll have fun, especially if they shoot 300 meters open sights
