Either example in NRA V-good condition with a good barrel are easily worth $150-$175 and I'd have no problem paying it myself. If the rifle in the auction has a good bore I'd jump on either one.īoth countries exported basicly unissued unfired examples they'd had in store since receiveing them, and these are NOT common. Regardless which rifle it is, '91 Argentine or '95 Chilean, ammo is easily put together and both rifles were superb examples of the gunmakers art and beautifully built. Whatever, that is the major design difference between the 1893 (and non-Swede 1894) and the 1895. Some guess that it's a kind of a guide to eliminate some of the bolt wobble. I don't think it constitutes a safety lug, but I also don't know exactly WHAT it's supposed to be for. There is a small shallow lug that is on the right side of the action directly behind the bolt handle, and some people consider it a safety lug. The 1895 action is a small ring in all respects that count. Now it COULD be that what they really have is a Chilean 1895 in the 7x57, which would be correct. American countries buying Mausers used the 7x57.Īrgentina transitioned directly from the 1891 to the M98 type model 1909's, so never used a model 1895. Brazil and Chile as the most common, along with most the rest of So. The same cartridge as Belgium and Turkey used. However, all Argentine Mausers were 7.65x53. I have another, a later DWM that still retains the crest. You can see the national crest has been buffed off, which is common. This is my first one and is an early Loewe production and happens to have the carbine handguard, which is apparently correct for early ones. Argentina DID have the model 1891 as below:
