Unless it appears in something, don't post it unless it fills an obvious gap in the model lines or the photo is a movie gun or your own photograph. Thanks. MoviePropMaster2008 (talk) 21:49, 24 March 2013 (EDT)
1903 Army Model C
From 1903 until 1930, this very simple hunting rifle was bought into military circles as the cheapest model. Most C-Models have military actions and chambers; there are also individual editions with civilian actions.
The Gewhr 88 pictured here isn't actually a typical Gewehr 88 with the straight stock and barrel jacket, it's a Turkish M88/05/35, which is fitted with a Mauser-style stock, handguard and barrel as part of their 1930s upgrade programme to convery the many weapons in their inventory to 8mm and fit them for the stock / bayonet of the Mauser 1903. I actually used to own one myself - surprisingly accurate rifle. Ended up trading it for an original WW1 configuration Turkish Geweht 88/05. - Nyles
I have 6 types of Gew 88, and photos of each. If I knew how to upload, I would. I will be happy to furnish imagesMichaelZWilliamson (talk) 19:45, 9 December 2012 (EST)
Zhongzheng image
A question for the Mauser experts out there, is the current image for the Type Zhongzheng wrong?
I thought one of the distinguishing features of the Zhongzheng was the fact that it had a straight bolt handle not a down-turned one like this. To me this looks like a Zhongzheng with a Kar98K bolt. Is this a mix and match or a variant? i ask because on the Woman Knight of Mirror Lake, The (Jian hu nu xia Qiu Jin) page you can see a mix of Zhongzhengs with both straight and down-turned bolt handles. --commando552 (talk) 19:38, 18 April 2013 (EDT)
According to Wikipedia, Type 1 had a straight bolt handle, and Type 2 was a bit shorter, with a bent bolt handle. --Funkychinaman (talk) 20:18, 18 April 2013 (EDT)
I can't tell if it's longer or not. --Funkychinaman (talk) 20:39, 18 April 2013 (EDT)
The link in the citation had this image. The two rifles above look to be the same length. I assume the bolts would be interchangeable. --Funkychinaman (talk) 20:41, 18 April 2013 (EDT)
