TURKISH ANKARA Gewehr 88 Bolt Action 7mm Caliber MAUSER MILITARY Rifle C&R
Turkish Rework of a Model 1888 COMMISSION RIFLE
Description: TURKISH ANKARA Gewehr 88 Bolt Action 7mm Caliber MAUSER MILITARY Rifle C&R Turkish Rework of a Model 1888 COMMISSION RIFLE Here we present a C&R Turkish Ankara Gewehr 88 Bolt Action Rifle, also referred to as the Model 88 Commission Rifle, made in Berlin, Germany and reworked at Ankara, Turkey. In 1915, The Ottoman Empire joined the Great War with the Central Powers, and virtually from the start, the declining empire was critically short of many necessary weapons and supplies, rifles being one of them. The German Empire, seeing the desperate situation the Ottomans were in, wished to provide them with Rifles of some kind. However, all Gewehr 98’s were prioritized for use by troops of the German empire, meaning there weren’t that many rifles the Germans could ultimately give away. However, the Germans had a very large and relatively untouched inventory of Gewehr 88/05s, which are essentially ‘modernized’ Gewehr 88’s with the ability use charger clips and 7.92x57mm. In 1915, Germany sent tens of thousands of these rifles, one source citing it was most likely somewhere between 25,000 and 50,000 rifles. The overall condition is good. Strong action. Bright bore and nicely rifled. This example sports a solid stock that remains in very good shape. The numbers do not match. Some markings are obfuscated. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Barrel is 29 inches. Caliber: 7mm Mauser Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING. Will need to be sent to your local FFL or C&R licensee. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1100 #217593 SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes |
