The Model 1894 (or more commonly known M94) was a precursor to the M1896 Carl Gustaf Mauser which went into production in 1895, with left over receivers used in the M1896 full sized rifle production. It is noteworthy for its metal endcap and the fact that some later models (like the M94/14) were designed to take either the standard M1914 army bayonet or the M95 Naval bayonet (a large bladed knife).

M1916 Spanish Mauser - 7.92x57mm Mauser

The 1916 (known also as the M1916) Spanish Mauser was a short rifle developed from the M1893 Spanish Mauser Rifle. It was originally chambered in 7.92x57mm Mauser Mauser, however later versions (after WW2) were re-chambered for 7.62x51mm NATO (not .308 Winchester as those would not fit) for use by guard (Guardia Civil) forces in Spain. It is noteworthy that only light 7.62mm NATO loads can be safely fired in these rifles. Heavy loads or modification to take the .308 Winchester would result in an exploding receiver.

M48 Yugoslavian Mauser

Yugoslavian M48 Mauser - 7.92x57mm Mauser

The M48 Mauser is a post World War II Yugoslavian version of the German Mauser K98k. Although similar in general appearance to that of the German rifle, many of the parts of these two rifles are not interchangeable, such as the bolt. The main difference between the M48 and the K98k is that the M48 uses an intermediate-length receiver. They are usually easily identified by the top handguard which extends behind the rear sight, and ends just in front of the receiver ring although this feature exists on other models as well. M48's are regarded as a military surplus firearm and can be collected in the US at a generally cheap price due to the numbers recently imported from Europe.

Other Models

Sometimes bolt action rifles are used in films to impersonate Mauser rifles, usually in large period films. This section is specifically for bolt action rifles which are not common enough to merit their own page but are technically not Mauser rifles.

Gewehr 1888

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mannlicher Gewehr 1888 - 7.92x57mm Mauser. This sample was an issued rifle in the Ottoman Empire based in its stampings. This is a movie armory weapon.

Also known as the Model 1888 Commission Rifle, this rifle was issued to front line German Troops in World War 1 until the Gewehr 98s caught up with production and fully replaced it in 1915. It was issued to troops serving the Ottoman Empire and was maintained by Turkish soldiers well into the 1930s. Though it can be seen outfitting German Troops in any World War 1 film, the rifle was surprisingly not a Mauser, but a Commission designed weapon that was built by various other manufacturers. The Rifle was based on Mannlicher, French Lebel and Mauser elements. When the Germans used it during the Boxer Rebellion in China, the Chinese made an unlicensed copy, the Hanyang 88 (Type 88).
