3/27/24 – This is a very nice example of a Mauser Gewehr 71/84. This was the successor to the Model 1871. By altering the stock and action configuration it was possible to adapt the original platform for the use of the Austrian-designed, Kropatschek-style, tubular magazine. Operating the bolt depressed and raised a lifter/carrier that efficiently loaded cartridges into the chamber from the under-barrel magazine. The bolt head itself was redesigned. Now recessed, the extractor was also re-sited because of the altered mechanism. Like most other repeaters of the period, the Infanterie-Gewehr Modell 1871/84 as it was designated, incorporated a cut-off that would disable the carrier and allow the rifle to be fired single-shot. Sights on the 71/84 were a blade front that was drift-adjustable for windage and a ladder-style rear, graduated to 1,600 meters. This one is entirely matching, down to the screws. Unit marking on the butt plate. Its original finish rates about 90% with finish loss on the barrel bands and some areas of light scratchy wear here and there. Very nice stock. Great bore for its age. Comes with a brass muzzle cap.
