Yeah, it's supposed to be a line from Rough Riders, that's why I wrote it the exact same as the movie lol. And no shit it's about the 7×57mm Mauser round, and "not ThE rIfLe"...no one could compare a 48.62 inch RIFLE, with a hornet.

well, yes and no. Keep in mind that he had a lot of competition in this time frame and didn't have the same name recognition then as he does now. Failure to land big military contracts had already cost him control of his own company and not being top of the market could literally doom Mauser as a company like it had many others in this time frame. You had to either be the best or have friends in high places funneling you contracts (lookin' at you Colt).

Hey Guys a viewer from Spain here, I know the Spanish Legion was one of the longest users of the 1893 Mauser, they carried them well into the civil war, even when the rest of the country was relying on destroyer carbines and 1916 Spanish Mausers . I’d recommend researching into the legion since they relied heavily on the gun and had tested it in several conflicts. Love this Chanel it’s simply excellent.

I'm a huge fan of the Spanish Mausers. It's a Mauser so you have a nice action, 7x57mm is a nice cartridge, and they're probably the least expensive milsurp guns out there. I'm surprised these aren't more popular. Guys are paying $350 for a Mosin Nagant while a Spanish Mauser is $150-200.

Maybe in 1980. You can't find 1893 Mausers for 150-200 anywhere. They are going for 500-1000 (and up) and they are pretty rare in the USA compared to the M1895, M1898.

@@TH3PLA1NP1L0T Yep, they're all prop guns, both American and Philippine rifles. The breech loader is really inaccurate and we do get it since TBA Studios don't have a real Mauser to copy on to. Not to mention that some of the rifles used on both films have operational bolt and non-operational both (of course cost cutting, and TBA is not even a major studio) As someone who was able to use their prop rifle up close (used them in our reenactments), it gets a lot worse, too long buttstock, breechloader very far from an actual Mauser, and bad paint.

About the mismatched parts, it was common practice in army depots to keep the bolts separate for safety reasons (revolution, basically). In 1936 the assault on the Cuartel de la Montaña barracks was sparked by the need to get the bolts for rifles kept in a whole different base. The three year Civil War probably didn't help either

At least, good vid as usual. Thanks to Mauser and the waffenfrabrik to design, made and sell magnificent rifles to small underdogs, the Boers and the Spanish dying Empire in 1898 to defend themselves against arrogant and more powerfull enemies. They made the war a ''little'' more complicated for those powers, let's put it that way. In Spain in all his variations the 1893 was used until the late 50s in various calibers (mostly 7mm mauser, 7,92 mauser and 7,62 NATO) and remains a legendary weapon in Spain. One of the few firearms that I really want to have.

My jadd (my grandpa) fought in the Spanish civil war with one of these and brought it disassembled on the boat over in the 50s when you could get away with shit like that lol he taught me to shoot with it, it was awesome, apparently it wasn’t the one issued to him but one he’d took from a dead republican

The spanish civil war was fought by the republicans (Who supported the stablished spanish Republic 6 years before) and the nationalists (Who revolted against them to end the Republic, and they won, installing a right wing dictatorship les by Franco until 1975, when the King of Spain stablished a parliamentary monarchy, which its the current system now)

I still have a 93 mauser. What is left of the original. When I had it bought for me it had a stock cut down. For my birthday my dad had it rebarrreled and a beautiful stock put on it. So it means a great deal to me. BUT I would love to have an original model. It shoots very well. God bless all here.

Despite all the improvements one must remember that this rifle is the near-ultimate development of a rifle intended for line infantry tactics. Hence the emphasis on certain features like bolt-hold-open on an empty magazine.
@kainhall 2 жыл бұрын
yet.... the KAR98k also had this feature and so do a few civilian hunting rifles . i think you are right...... but the "hold open" is not needed to fight in lines.... . . even shooting at a damn rabbet..... a hold open is simply a nice thing to have even that rabbet will get your adrenaline pumping..... so you dont feel the recoil

Love the Krag. And 30-40…. But, the Mauser had the stripper clip. Krag was a single shot in doctrine, with rounds held in reserve, and topped off on the go.

The message I added a couple weeks ago with links to additional information is missing... weird I have available a scan from the Army library of the "Nomenclatura del fusil Mauser Español modelo 1893 con el manejo, funcionamiento de su mecanismo y entretenimiento", by Antonio Garcia Perez. Hand written and drawn when the rifle was something new, for teaching.

1895 Chileno was the first rifle i ever had. Yes its one of the old sportsmans guide 7.62x51 Nato conversions, and yes, ive heard all the stories, but ive used .308s and 7.62x51 alternately since 1986 and never had a problem nor a jam.
