Description

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. It was 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. The M1893 was developed into several variants, including a shortened carbine adopted by the Spanish as the M1895, and as the M1913 and M1916 short rifles. All versions of the rifle saw extensive service in the Spanish Army beginning in the Spanish–American War in 1898, the Rif War of 1920–1927, and the Spanish Civil War of 1936–1939.

This particular Model 1893 was made the Oviedo Arsenal in Spain circa 1928; according to the cartouche on the stock. It is all correct and original. It features a beautiful stock with no damage and beautifully crisp edges; indicating that it has never been sanded or refinished.

The M1893 was reportedly robust and and well made, and this gun is no exemption. The action of the bolt is smooth and crisp with no visible wear or damage to the lugs.

The magazine is intact and functional; with a crisp magazine spring.

The bluing is excellent with much of the original finishing turning "plum" with age.

The barrel is chambered in 7×57mm Mauser and is full length. The bore is a bit dark but with strong rifling and no major rust or pitting.
