For your bidding pleasure is a Mauser Model 1893 7mm Mauser bolt action rifle. The Mauser Model 1893 is a bolt-action rifle commonly referred to as the Spanish Mauser, though the model was adopted by other countries in other calibers, most notably the Ottoman Empire. The M1893 was based on the experimental M1892 rifle, which Paul Mauser developed for the Spanish Army as part of a program to correct deficiencies in the earlier 1889, 1890, and 1891 series of Mauser rifles. The M1893 introduced a short staggered-column box magazine that fit flush with the bottom of the stock; the magazine held five smokeless 7×57mm Mauser rounds, which could be reloaded quickly by pushing a stripper clip from the top of the open bolt. This rifle features a wonderful straight grain walnut stock with steel butt plate. The M1893 was manufactured in two variants for Spain, a standard rifle with a 29” barrel and a short carbine with a 21.75” barrel. This rifle features the smaller 21.75” carbine barre. The receiver is stamped with the date 1925. The hooded front sight has been painted along with the adjustable rear sight to help with target acquisition. Serial Number: 236929. This firearm qualifies as a Curio & Relic, and requires FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.
