Deactivated Austro-Hungarian Steyr M95 infantry carbine c/w sling **SOLD**
Designed by Ferdinand Ritter von Mannlicher in 1895 and manufactured at the Steyr works in Austria and Budapest, Hungary, this carbine equipped the Austro-Hungarian Army during WW1 and was still being used as a second-line weapon in WW2. Originally chambered for a 8 x 50mm round, between the wars it was re-chambered for a longer more powerful 56mm cartridge. The reworked rifles were marked with a 'S' on the receiver. Popular for its impressive rate of fire due to the revolutionary straight-pull bolt action rather than the usual rotating bolt, this carbine was a reliable and effective weapon. This example is in good original condition with excellent hardwood stock and nicely blued steelwork, marked with the 'S', and a partial date that could be '15 or '17 on the barrel, and also marked Budapest M.95 on the receiver. Matching serial number to breech, barrel, trigger-guard and butt-stock, this is an unusual axis-power rifle. It can be cocked and dry-fired and field stripped. Comes with repro leather sling, but inert clip of rounds is not included. Full clip can be inserted and ejected, and is available for £15 in 'Inert Ammunition' section, post free if ordered with carbine. Deactivated in the UK with Certificate to UK specification.
