The Wänzl Rifle is a breech loading conversion of the M1854 and M1862 Lorenz Rifle. Approximately 70,000 rifles (of all variants including Infantry, Jäger, Extra Korps and wall rifle lengths) were converted and were used by the Austro-Hungarian Empire as a stopgap solution until enough Werndl Rifles could be produced. Despite being woefully obsolete by the time of the First World War, severe equipment shortages led to the Wänzl being pulled out of storage and issued to rear echelon troops.
