Cap, that's just it, aside from the serial numbers and small spanish crosses, there are no markings on this thing at all! I don't think it is a carbine, i think it is a short rifle, as the barrel measures around 22' rather than the 17-18' i've read the carbines to be. From the rear receiver tang to the muzzle is just under 30' and overall. Ok, left side of the reciever serial number ( i think) F4508, then it says ' MAUSER CHILENO MODELO 1895' below that it says 'MANUFACTURA LOEWE BERLIN'. In between the reciever and the rear sight it also has the serial number stamped. Below the rear sight it looks like two hammers crossed. Your serial number, if original, would indicate a very early first year of production Oviedo 1896. You have a Spanish Mauser in 7mm (7x57) Mauser caliber made at the arsenal in Oviedo, Spain in 1931. The sling is a well used nylon sling made the U.S. For the M14 (probably from the 1960s). Your rifle looks like it has been through at.

The Mauser Model 1895 adopted as Fusil Mauser Chileno Mo 1895.[1] by Chilean forces, is a bolt operated magazine fed rifle using the 7×57mm Mauser cartridge. It is the first major modification of the Mauser Model 1893 and was produced by Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken, known as DWM, and Ludwig Loewe Company during the period of 1895–1900[2]

History[edit]

Chilean M1895 rifles during a military parade in 2014.

First supplied by the Ludwig Loewe & Co during 1895-1896 then later by the DWM (1897-1900), the Mauser model 1895 first made its appearance during a small arms race between Argentina and Chile in 1896 and 1898.[2] In this period, over 80,000 Model 1895 rifles and 30,000 Model 1895 carbines were shipped and deployed to the Chilean army.[2]

Mauser 1895, used by the Boers in South Africa; (at the Auckland Museum)

The Model 1895 was also deployed to republic of the Orange Free State and the South African Republic (more commonly known as “Transvaal”) by DWM shortly after the Jameson Raid in December 1895 to deal with the shortage of modern magazine fed rifles for the state army.[1] Roughly 50,000 Mauser rifles were ordered but only 37,000 were delivered because DWM diverted them to fulfill their contract with the Chilean army.[2] Due to many rifles being diverted to Chile, many of the rifles in that country bore the inscription “O.V.S” (Oranje Vrij Staat), Orange Free State. The Model 1895 brought to the “Transvaal” was also known as 'Boer Model' Mauser[3] and were marked “O.V.S” (Oranje Vrij Staat) just above the serial number accompanied by MOD.MAUSER and the date of the manufacturer. Because of this issue, a misunderstanding occurred regarding the identification between the Model 1896 and Model 1897. At the time, an Afrikaans farmer (Also known as a Boer) could purchase a Mauser Model 1895 at a price of £3, another variant known in Afrikaans as Plezier Mauser was sold slightly above cost by the respective governments and private dealers for sport and private use.[4] These rifles varied in stock style, barrel, sight lines and ornamentation. Some of the last rifles delivered by DWM were equipped with turned down bolt handles which made them suitable for the South African farmers on horseback. Work on the manufacturing of the Mauser Model 1895 was halted in 1899 by the Second Boer War.[1]

The Mauser Model 1895 also saw service in Mexico, Costa Rica, Paraguay, Iran, El Salvador and Honduras.[1] Mauser Model 1895 rifles and carbines were the standard weapons of the various Mexican armies during the Mexican Revolution[5] while the Paraguayan rifles saw combat during the Chaco War.[6]

Design[edit]

Mauser Model 1895 rear sight leaf

The Mauser Model 1895 is a modification of the Mauser Model 1893. The flush-mounted staggered column box magazine has a capacity of 5 smokeless powder 7×57mm Mauser cartridges.[7] The magazine can be loaded from a stripper clip, or with individual rounds. The stock has a straight wrist and a handguard which stretches from the receiver ring to the lower barrel band. The upper band has a lug for the Model 1895 bayonet.

The Model 1895 differed from the Mauser Model 1893 with regards to the bolt face. The bolt face used in the Mauser Model 1893 was square whereas the Model 1895's was cylindrical, this is due to the fact that the square face was unnecessary for reliable feeding. In addition, the Model 1895 had an auxiliary shoulder behind the bolt handle in order to provide additional locking in case of bolt failure.[3][8] Another major modification regarding the Model 1895 to the Model 1893 was the magazine follower, the tail of which was rounded so that the bolt could be closed on an empty chamber[1]

The Mauser Model 1895 iron sight line had an open post type front sight, and a tangent-type rear sight with a rear notch. These standard sight lines consisted of somewhat coarse aiming elements making it suitable for rough field handling, aiming at distant area fire targets and low light usage, but less suitable for precise aiming at distant or small point targets. The rear tangent sight was graduated for 1893 pattern 7×57mm Mauser cartridges loaded with a 11.2-gram (172.8 gr) long round-nosed bullet from 400 to 2,000 m (437 to 2,187 yd) in 100 m (109 yd) increments.

Variants[edit]

Model 1895 Short Rifle[edit]

Also known as the mosqueton, the Short Rifle is a slightly longer version of the carbine with an overall length of 41.2 in (1,046 mm), a 21.25 in (540 mm) barrel and a 1,400 m (1,531 yd) rear sight. The only other modifications are a bent bolt handle and sling swivels on the left side of the barrel band and stock.[2]

Model 1895 Carbine[edit]

Also known as the Carabina Mauser Chilena Modelo 1895 was primarily designed for cavalry and artillery. This model is similar in design to the Mauser Model 1895 except for the fact that it is smaller. It is only 37.3 in (947 mm) long with an 18.3 in (465 mm) barrel. It was also closely related to the short rifle except that the sling swivels are on the left side of the barrel band and on the stock behind the wrist. It also has the same modified form of the bent bolt handle as the short rifle.[2]

Serbian M1899[edit]

A Serbian M 99 C short rifle.

The Serbian Mauser M1899 in 7×57mm is a variant of the M95, it was produced by Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken from 1899 to 1906 and later by Œ.W.G. in Steyr from 1906 to 1910.[9] Depending on the slight modifications during the production, they were designated M1899, M1899/07 and M1899/08.[10] 10,000 carbines, designated M1889/08 or M1908 were also delivered by Steyr.[10][11] They were the most modern rifles of the Serbian Army during the Balkan Wars[12] and World War I.[13]Yugoslav used them as Puska 7 mm M 99 and Karabini 7 mm M 8 C.[14] Before World War II, the M1899 long rifle was shortened and rechambered in 7.92×57mm to resemble the M24B short rifle.[15] This version was designated Puska 7,9 mm M 99 C.[14] The rifles captured by Nazi Germany were designatedGewehr 222 (j) (M99), Karabiner 421 (j) (M08C) and Gewehr 291/4 (j) (M99C).[14]
