Dad and I where cleaning out the hunting shack this morning and stubled upon an Old M95m Steyr. As far as I can tell it is the precursor to the K98 that steyr manufactured.

Ferdinand Ritter von Mannlicher was the gun designer. Very interesting little gun it is in the 8mmx50mm with a straight pull mauser action.

In WWI it one of the highest ROF and also the lites infantry weapon. It it suppose to kick like a mule. Need to hunt down some ammo to try it out.

Ever heard of it?

No...but I'm not that interested in guns...


(is it possible to get a spell checker on this forum?)
