The Germans were allied with the Turks in WWI. The G98’s were given to Turkey, not “captured”.
You beat me to it! Well done sir!
Those that get their history from Eric are idiots.
Exactly. The Ottoman Empire (not Turkey) purchased a lot of Gew.98 rifles in 1917 and 1918, from their ally Germany.
The Turkish mouser is a g98 with a modified sight I have a 1943 model
I have a Turk mauser. A small ring with a 8mm barrel. Has a v notch cut in the barrel ring. So the point of the bullet will go into the magazine.
I have a Argentine 1891 Carbine that my grandfather left me after his passing in '95. Love shooting it because it brings back my grandfather for just a little bit. He loved that old rifle.
Turks didn't capture Mauser's, they acquired them from Germany. They were on the same side in WW1.
I have a turkish mauser, it's made in turkey, don't know when but it is pretty old.
Thank you. Am glad someone else spotted that.
@@hobbz4921 if you look up videos on yt you can find out, by certain features of your rifle, roughly from when it was made. Maybe not exactly but in a time frame kind of way.
Indeed. Check out C&Rsenal channel. They have a great video on it as well as many WW1 firearms. Highly recommend.
The OTTOMAN Empire fought enemies armed with Mausers. So they are right. and you are wrong sorry!

Thank you for the time stamps, much appreciated
Don't forget there are 2 different 7.92 x 57 mm rounds
@@rustybayonet1664 which 2?
Thanks for your help
The original calibre of the
PORTUGUESE Mod.1904 Mauser was 6.5 X 58 mm. Portuguese. ( From the 6.5x57 Mannlicher).
It is a Mauser rifle, with a Mannlicher action, commandered by the portuguese Royal Army.
(The portuguese King D.Carlos, loved Mannlicher rifles ).
Later, they were converted ,
( Republican Governement ),
to the then standard cal.
7.92 X 57 Mauser, ( .323" ), by
Capt. Vergueiro, a military ordenance officer, and also shortening the barrel lenght.h
M1896 Swedish and 1895 Chilean Mauser for me.
I almost forgot Vergueiro is NOT a Mauser action it was based from Gewehr-88/Mannlicher-Schönauer action mated to a Gewehr 95/98 style magazine and stock. That is why people confused them with Mauser because the stock looks similar.
I have the M38 and just acquired a 1895 Chilean Mauser. The Chilean is in excellent condition unfortunately the only powder I have for it and 140's in H4831sc. Still waiting for dies. My plan is start 2 grains lower than the starting load, and use the starting load as a maxium load. Would like to get your experience with that rifle. Thanks.
Definitely the Swedes love both of mine the 96 and the Carbine that 6.5x55 Swede is a hell of a round have the Mexican one as well in the 7x57 all are tack drivers!
@@silencedogood5766 The 6.5x55 is my favorite, but the 7.x57 is a better big game getter that is still in the mild recoil category.
Although based on the bolthead will not interchange.
My personal favorite is 1933-1934 “standard modell” mausers, beautiful banner beautiful wood and pretty much a pre k98. Amazing workmanship.
The 1893 mauser changed the game as far as design and functionality. It had served in many conflicts by spanish, latin America, turkey, and the boers. Two versions exist, 1893, 1895, and 1916. It deserves its own category. Mostly available in 7x57. Early turks were 7.65 and later converted to 8x57 to accommodate the new pattern 98/36. Later 1916s were converted to 7.62 cetme. Great videos guys!
I have a carbine, in spite of two books and multiple videos, I can't identify. There were just so many variations, closest I've found is a Model 95 Oveido with the same barleycorn sites mine has, except it is a straight bolt and mine is a bent bolt. Mine has been Bubba'ed long before I got it, still an incredibly accurate rifle. 7x57 does not play.
Question/request when you shoot 600 yards can you set a camera up not zoomed in over your shoulder so we can see what it looks like trying to see the targets that far with the naked eye? Just a request thanks guys!
While we're making requests... how about getting a bikini clad blonde (a hot Vanna White type) to stand downrange and hold the target... 😉
I've got a 137/1940 k98 my father brought home from ww2 . Got my first deer with it , 1967
Absolutely amazing. A girl I dated in high school had access to her fathers MP40. They were German, interestingly. I was more interested in getting my hands on the firearm even back then haha. Never got to unfortunately.
Swedish mausers
Great video guys! I could talk about Mauser for hours with you! I grew up my dad and grandpa carry a Belgian made Browning Safari FN Mauser rifle! My second deer rifle was a modernized M96 6.5x55 Mauser (first was Savage Model 99 300sav)! Great video guys truly! I wish my dad was alive to watch this!
Guys. I own an M48 Yugoslavian. You could call it the poor man’s K98k. 23.5” barrel and intermediate length action. A great shooter on a European Elm stock known for it’s attractive amber/gold/red grain pattern. It’s predecessor the M24/47 is worth a review. The history behind these rifles and their link/lineage to the Belgian and the Chezc VZ is interesting also the K98 figures into it.
The little short Swedish carbine is one of my all time favorite guns to shoot. I had a Lowe rebarrel in 30-06 with globe sights, 600yd gong clanger all day long
I'm relatively new to Mausers, but just got an 1893 Spanish and 1895 Chilean. Both chambered in 7mm Mauser.
Love to see some discussion in depth of those production years.
Great video.
One note, Brazilian Mausers are in 7x57, and late converted to 30-06 and 7.62 NATO.
Our barrels are .286" instead of .284" used in other 7mm mausers.
Argentine, swedish and Chilean my favorites
Thank you so much guys! It's always a good time to learn about new types of Mausers.🎉
Well done guys. I learned a lot. You guys really did your homework.
I love the C&R or antique videos that they do! They are my favorite
The Mauser Vergueiro was originally chambered in 6.5x58 Vergueiro a cartridge designed specifically for this rifle. Many were rechambered to 7.92x57 in 1939 to standardize with the Mauser 98k. It can also be found in 7x57 which was the export version. Vergueiro was ahead of his time with the 6.5 kinda like an early 6.5 Creedmoor.
I just bought my 3rd mauser rifle yesterday. Can't wait to get it in to start shooting some.
THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO GUY'S!!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK YOU GUY'S DO FOR US EVERYDAY TO MAKE THESE VIDEO'SFOR US TO WATCH!!!! DON'T STOP WHAT YOU GUY'S ARE DOING!!!
Just love my old Mauser ex-military rifles. Intuitive to use, comfortable, accurate and pure classy. Thanks.
Like holding a beautiful woman.
I have a Yugo 24/47 - bought it years ago, love it.
Not very well know but my first rifle I ever got when I was 15 is a 1916 Spanish Mauser, used in the Spanish civil war. It’s a handy little rifle it shoots the 7x57 Mauser and I just love it. I love it so much I bought a Chilean Mauser, and a Columbian Mauser. But by far my favorite Mauser is the 1916 Spanish Mauser
Enjoyed that. A lot of rifle for the money in that first model 1891 shown. Swede model 94 carbine was my favorite. Thanks for video
I have a Serbian Mauser made in 1937 from tooling that I believe came from BRNO. It is a shorter action than other Mauser manufacturers. It still has the King Peter two markings on the stock and metal, there is no import marks, so I am thinking it could be a "bring back" from WW2. It still shoots great. Thanks for all your great videos.
Nope you didn't disappoint me. I've got a 1918 m94 that I had thought about sport rising but have since come to my senses and I've left it alone.
Praise God you didn't sporterize it. My biggest pet peeve is sporterized milsurps. Got a nonfunctional Italian Carcano carbine that got sporterized. It makes me especially sad because an unsporterized stock isn't much longer. If it could still fire and it wasn't sporterized, I think it would be an amazing little thing to throw around.
I’ve had several mousers over the years. The special ones were a Venezuelan Mauser made in 1953 by FN for the 1954 PanAm games. It had windage adjustable sights and no bayonet lugs. It was never in general issue and in near perfect condition. Very accurate. I’ve also had two Siamese maulers, one was in awesome condition which I shot as essentially a wildcat in its original caliber. The other was in Terrible shape so I had it made into a 45-70. I also had a Sauer made one that was a German wwii used gun. There were also a Turkish one and an 1896 Swedish.
I have a 7x57 that was built by my father years ago when he was in gunsmithing school in Trinidad Colorado. He made the barrel and bought an action for it. It is cock on closing and I never really knew what year it was. Watching this video I was able to get a little closer to pinning down the age. 7x57 is my favorite caliber of all the rifles I own and that rifle has taken the two largest elk I have ever harvested. I was able to get my hands on a Ruger M77/270 and had it rebarreled with a Shilen barrel and had it stamped 275 Rigby. Now my old rifle is my pole gun. Named that because my property is covered with lodge pole pine so shots are not very far and I have an original Weaver K-3 post and crosshair scope on it. I hand load so the books I use only show low pressure loads so I have had to experiment a lot but now have some excellent loads. Thanks for the video, it was helpful.
Years ago I ran into a Swedish 96 that was converted by the Kimber shop when in Oregon, chambered in 3.08 with Shilen S/S fluted barrel with synthetic stock.
So happy you guys included the Persians! I have a few myself
Lucky guy
The 1895 Chilean is one of my favorites because it is half way between the ‘96 and the ‘98 because it has the external safety lug and will handle the pressure created by modern powders. I have a multitude of ‘96s Mauser, Gustav, Husqvarna, ‘95 Chileans, and ‘98s Mauser, Lowe, JP Saur. I do t have a single push feed action in my collection.
Absolutely love my matched pair. 1916 Spanish Short Rifles, a 1st pattern, and a 2nd pattern. First is in 7 X 57, second was rebarreled at Osvedio, to 7.62 X 51 mm. Compact, easy to carry, and very accurate. Makes a good deer rifle, while still in full military trim.
I live for the military surplus videos on this channel
Great video fellas!
Love the Chilean mausers. I own a 93 mauser Chilean in 7×57 caliber. Loved it. My favorite Mauser is the swiss 94 carbine in 6.5×55. Absoulutely beautiful make
I have read the 6.5x55 Swiss mauser was the best sniper rifle ever made.
Please yes!! More of these videos!!
When the video started I felt like I was in Heaven. That's Mauser paradise right there on the table
And once again you have produced a great video keel up the hard and fun work.
P.S. where to go to purchase some of your weapons.
They have been getting harder to find over the past 8 years,...many people are waking up to them. Bad for those that have waited though. Great video.
Used to shoot military competition matches years ago. Been sitting on 500+ rounds of mil surp 8mm. Since we cannot get ammo to bring to the guns, I bought an excellent condition Yugo M48 with the cleanest bore I have seen on a Mauser. To compliment my small pile of ammo. She shoots nice enough at 100 yards with irons, off hand.
My first and favorite Mauser is a small bore 410b made in 1936 brought back from the war by my dad. He gave it to me and I’ve been shooting it ever since. It’s one of the most accurate 22.’s I’ve ever shot and the grouping is insane. It’s still in great condition with fantastic blueing and all the German stamps and markings.
They czech all the boxes....lol!
Beautiful,durable and accurate.
Only catch might be sorting out some of the more unique ammo calibers, could justify reloading if components ever become available again.
Great video on the often overlooked Mauser, reach out and touch someone!
I'm surprised that there isn't a 7x57 on this list, they are very high quality and weren't used much. But for me, I love my Argentine Mausers. If I had to choose one, it would probably be my 1909 Cavalry Carbine.
Honorable mention to the Vz. 24. Those Czechs made some darn good rifles. It's the smoothest 8mm that I own.
I am fond of my Mausers. The 1896 Swede, in 6.5x55, is just stunning. I have a 22-250 varminter built on a '98 action, dunno which Mauser, but dang, is it accurate! I'm building a custom rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor based on a 1909 Argentine, which is rare among military Mausers with its hinged floor plate. And my most favorite, which isn't a milsurp, is my Fabrique Nationale commercial Mauser in .308.
Glad you brought my favorite caliber/Mauser into the discussion, 6.5x55mm Swedish!!!
The granddaddy of the 6.5 Credemore , and a better cartrige IMHO .
Nice information guys.
The Swedish 96 is brilliant especially in carbine form.
Was a little disappointed not to see my Model 1916 Spanish Mauser Guardia Civil short rifle, but it was a nice collection you showed off there.
The first rifle I ever owned was a Swedish Mauser in 6.5x55 that I refinished with my stepdad when I was around 12. Wish I still had it, loved that gun.
My favorite is the Yugo m48. Great shooting rifle and reasonable prices.
The Ruger Gunsite Scout in .308 with detachable mags and reasonable round count is pretty much a fully modern mauser for anybody who doesn't want a really old gun but still wants to get into this great action in an affordable high quality rifle today.
I recently bought a Bergara B14 Ridge chambered in .308 Winchester with the Special Purpose 18 inch threaded barell . I've topped her with an Israeli Milsurp Nimrod sniper scope that was used on their Galil and M14 sniper rifles . I intend to install bottom metal that takes ten round mags , and maybe a suppressor . My idea is to use her in the Counter-sniper / Squad Designated Marksman role .
I recently purchased an m96, with a date stamp of 1925. Love it!
Nice video, I'm a swede and i've got 2 mauser actions, one hqv old military action in 6.5x55 (m38?) With diopter and one hqv 640 With civil m98 action without thumb cutout and cambered in 8x57JS.
If the m96 have diopter sights its probably a FSR rifle.
It can easily be restored to its military configuration.
@@fridolfmane1063 in the US an FSR is worth more than a run of the mill m/96.
You know, I may never own a K98k, but why bother when I have a nice Yugo M48?
Never been this early
No different than a week later, is it?
Thanks, good review/discussion. IMHO, I look for something with the pistol grip, turn down bolt, shorter
Thank you gentlemen... My favorite rifles of all time... with the swede on top.
Wow, my brain hurts from all this knowledge. I inherited a couple Mausers that were "sporterized" or at least have new furniture on them and clean shiny barrels. I've got to dig them out and rewatch this video.
Thank you guys!
My 1906 Spanish Mauser is in its original 7mm state and is a joy to shoot, my other Mauser is the never issued M 48 Yugo in 8mm, both fine rifles and deer harvesters
Hey I enjoy all your videos and thank you, but have you done any air rifles? I just purchased a sig Sauer mcx .177 and would be curious to see what you guys think.
Love your videos
Just ordered a swedish M96, I'm super excited for it to arrive at the ffl so I can do the transfer
Love these videos
The markings on the stock of the M-96 (Sweden) is because that 6,5x55 was originally loaded with a heavy round nose.
That was changed in 1940 to a lighter pointed bullet so instead of changing the sights of the rifle "överslaget" on different distance were marked on the stock.
By the way Moose is named älg in Swedish and elk in English.
So 9,3x57 is used mostly on moose in Sweden.
The Mauser M03 is a joy,and has so many options for different ammo types and easy barrel swap. So that's probably my favorite,even though it cost a fair bit.
My 1891 Argentine is one of my favorite rifles. Great video... shows how much I DON'T know about Mausers... great googly moogly!!1
My dad has had a Mauser M-38 in 6.5x55 Swed. Since the 1970’s and it is a scary accurate for a military open sighted carbine. And very soft recoil for a straight stocked, brass butt plate rifle. 6.5 Swed. Has taken lots of deer and moose here in Canada.
Finally the content we need 👍🏻🇺🇸
I have a 98/29 Persian which was one of the unissued ones so to keep the value I don't shoot it but I have an older98/22 Turk and it shoots great. I have numerous Turkish M38s that shoot very good and have rebarreled one of them to a long 7.65x53 Argentine and put the Turk sights back on it in a full military stock. I want to do the same thing with a M96 Swede barrel. When the Turks used the small ring barrel shank on an M38 action it was a blessing.
Thanks!
half the fun is watching Chad's facial expressions... it's a wonderful subtext to every topic
The model 96 in 7x57 used in South Africa also needs some mention. GREAT GUN
The verguero is not a Mauser rifle. It is based off the schlegelmilch gewehr 88 with a Mauser flush magazine. It’s not an “intermediate length action” it’s not a Mauser at all
Someone’s got their panties in a twist
9:46
If you want to come across as an expert, it would help if you spelled Vergueiro correctly
@@amym828 lol. I see you read the next comment after his 😂
Wouldn't the root of the bolt handle also function as a 3rd safety lug?
2:28 * carefully extracts the bullet to prevent losing it*
* bullet immediately rolls off the table*
The Bullet, like Elvis, has already left the barrel. The Case, however was extracted and then rolled of the bench.
im not a reloader....so i LOVE PPU for my Mauser and even my mosins......and any other caliber they make. Oh and my fave is a K98K yugo capture.
Got to love my Cetme FR8. It hits ya like a FR8-Train! And I like the Yugoslavian M48.
8mm is one of the ammos I've been able to buy regularly in my area.
Me too.
I find 1954 surplus 8mm for 50 cents a pop in my area lol it's litterally cheaper than 223 to shoot now a days
Seller&Belliot 196gr FMJ, Box of 50 for 40bucks. If available at your end of the world give em a try.
Eric and lieutenant Dan. love the vids guys.
My favorite mauser is the '03 springfield. Cause thats what i have!
Not really a mauser but ok.
@@ChiTownGuerrilla it was a copy. Springfield got sued by mauser.
@@robertdinicola9225 who cares. Germans basically use a Stoner today.
Not sure if you’re still on here but I just got a Swedish m38 and I was wondering if you think it can handle newer ammo. Ik you said you can put a lot of powder behind it. Just wanted to make sure when I’m reloading or buying ammo i don’t have to worry about messing it up using new more powerful loads
The first bolt action I ever tried was a Huskvarna model 4100 in 30-06 and I didn't realize at the time just how impeccable that action was! I've since tried the zipper bolts on Ruger Americans or the slop on a Tikka, but NOTHING has yet to beat the GLASS fit of a Husky!
the mauser style lever action is still being used to this day in airguns. we love them for long range
lever action? did you mean bolt action??
@@hobbz4921 my bad. Not my native language. Tks
@ it's cool, for a second there I thought there might be some crazy lever action mauser out there.... that would've been cool
Not just airguns, but in most bolt action rifles to this day. Just goes to show how perfect and crisp the Mauser 98 action is. :)
@@zombieslayer7759 Not really, most bolt actions these days use push feed and have a different extractor and ejector to Mausers. Most come with their own style of safeties and triggers, modern militaries don't even use the Mauser action anymore in their bolt rifles.
I think you forgot to mention the Brazilian Army Mauser carbine Mod 34/08, cal 7x57 mm made in former Czechoslovakia (Brno). They are very very accurate and extremely good for hunting boar, specially with the long for calibre 175 gr projectiles. Interesting enough the grooves diameter of Brazilian 7x57 Mausers is .286 rather than .284.
I bought a yugo M24/52 mauser last before the pandemic. I looked this rifle up, I couldn't find a lot of widespread info about this gun. But basically (from what I've read) it's a Czech vz24, because of the hardware that's on it and the stock has finger drives in it and such. I read that they were given as war reparations after WW2 to the yugoslavians. And in the 1950s they started a short lived refurbishment program and redesignated these vz24's as M24/52's. It has a brand new, from 50 or so years ago, barrel on it. Bluing is outstanding. Great condition stock. Its absolutely beautiful, I love it! I put a brass stacker mount on it with a scope and killed a big 8pt last year. Probably the best mauser, in terms of quality, I'll ever have.
I just bought a 1909 argentine carbine. Got a wicked deal on it because at some point someone put the action in a K98 stock and they thought it was a parts bin frankenrifle. All S/N’s minus the stock are matching 😂
Love the Swedish Mausers and the 6,5x55 is awesome, my absolute favourite. You spoke of copied mauser actions and thats what i hunt with, a Winchester 70 XTR in 6,5x55.
Three years ago I shot a nice whitetail doe with a sporterized Swedish M96, one of the very first M96 guns made in Germany before they started production in Sweden. Someone had cut 3 inches off the barrel, so I ended up trimming it down further to 20 inches, putting a good front sight on, having a target crown on it and cutting the stock to match the handguard so I could use the original sling swivels. I shot the doe at 100 yards at a downhill angle, broke the left shoulder, took out the heart and went out the right side. The deer dropped instantly. The first Mauser I owned I wish I still had, an original Spanish Mauser from 1893. Shot great. I've had a Gewehr 98, I've had a custom 98 Mauser in .338-06 Improved. I've owned a Spanish 1916 Mauser that was cut down, but never redone in .308, it stayed 7 x 57mm. I now own a numbers matching K98 which I think is my favorite.
Eric, could you explain “ Turkish capture”,please? In WW1 the Ottoman Empire and the German empire were allies. How would the Turks capture a Mauser? Wouldn’t the German sell/provide the ottomans with the rifles?
@Stupid Bitch I see your point, but in the video Eric is heavily implying that the rifle itself is captured for use by the ottomans. And the ottomans would not capture a rifle from its allies.
He says the crest on the rifle is to show it's captured, which is not the case.
@@littletaff95, mayhap a stumbling upon the impetus for the phrase, "Young and Foolish" is upon us?
The Serbians, Belgians and several other nations used Mausers of some kind. Would of been somewhat simple to shift them over to the ottomans
I like your military surplus videos.
I'm remembering Mausers back in the day at our local pawn & gun shops... for $65.00 bucks.
Those WERE the days...
I like the Argentine Mausers a lot.
I have one. See my post from today.
Me too. My dad has the Argentine Cavalry Carbine they mentioned. He has the bayonet and sling too.I love it but in no hurry to own it, I’d like to have him around for a long time. Maybe he’ll give it to me while he’s still around.
I bought an Argentine Mauser from a coworker 15 years ago for $135.00. It’s a heavy rifle with ammunition just a touch slower than .308. My first whitetail buck was shot with my dads Argentine in late 70’s. He had it as a backup rifle for black bear hunting for a few years.
Kind of funny i recently received a stiga m96 sporter in 8x57 and had it out to the range today for the first time and it is now in my top favorite rifles i own
My favorite Mausers are the Zastava M48 and the Zastava M24/47, both are non Turkish capture (just kidding, but that means a lot in the Balkans). They were both arsenal refinished after WW2 and are in outstanding condition. When I fired the M48, it immediately reminded me of the fact that I have an old mountain bike injury in my shoulder. I've never fired the 24/47. Ironically, the 8mm ammo I have is marked 1939 from...Turkey.
I have the M18 chambered in 30-06 and have been VERY happy with it and its performance. Even though it's not the high end or military type it shares a lot of the same characteristics, except wood haha.
I've got a 1904 Vergueiro still chambered in 6.5x58mm Portuguese that our Union Defense Force of South Africa still bought up from Portuguese colonies like Lorenzo Marques back in the day. Luckily have an old RCBS dieset for loading up, taken plenty of warthogs and wildebeest with it on my bush hunts
@7:30 High Rifle model 1317, Bruno Firearms Manufacturer.
Good information. At 9.00 you were saying something about vaguera mauser? could you help clarify that. Thank you
Turkey started buying mausers in 1887 I think. Around 1890 they started using 7.65 Argentina or Belgian cart.. The 88 and 98 mausers were supplied by Germany. In the 30s they started converting the 7.65 m93 and such into standard 8mm
I just came into two historic mausers.
How would i go about seeing what they are worth, and if they are functioning correctly? One is from 1895
Exelente video digno de una gran arma . He usado bastante un modelo 98 fabricado en 1910 con muchas satisfacciones....
