AUSTRIAN WERNDL M.73/77 EXTRA-KORPS-GEWEHR SINGLE SHOT CARBINE
Description: 1877 AUSTRIAN WERNDL MODEL M.73/77 EXTRA-KORPS-GEWEHR CARBINE. IT IS A ROTARY BLOCK SINGLE SHOT. THIS VARIATION HAD A SLING SWIVEL ON THE BUTT STOCK. ALL SLING SWIVELS (FOREND, TRIGGER GUARD AND BUTT STOCK) AND THE FOREND CAP ARE MISSING. IT IS SERIAL # 2359. THE REAR SIGHT IS A LADDER TYPE ADJUSTABLE TO 1400 YARDS, TALK ABOUT OPTIMISM...FROM MY RESEARCH, CHAMBER CASTING AND BORE SLUG , IT APPEARS TO BE AN 11.15 X 36MMR ROUND (AN UPGRADE FROM THE 1873 11.15 x 42MMR) THOUGH THE CHAMBER CAST SHOWS AN AREA THAT COULD BE A CARTRIDGE NECK STEP DOWN THAT MIGHT BE A CARTRIDGE NECK STEP DOWN (11.15 X 42MMR) OR A FORCING CONE. ACCURATE INFORMATION IS HARD TO FIND ON THESE. I FIREFORMED SOME 7.62 X 54 BRASS AND TRIMMED 1 CASE TO 36MM LENGTH (INCLUDED WITH RIFLE) THAT CYCLES THROUGH THE ACTION BUT I HAVE NOT FIRED IT AND I LEFT THE OTHER 19 CASES UNTRIMMED IN CASE IT IS 11.15 X 42MMR. I'M NOT SURE WHAT BULLETS TO USE! IT COMES WITH THE CLEANING ROD. LOTS OF DINGS, SCRATCHES AND CHIPS ON WOOD. THE BORE IS DARK WITH STRONG RIFLING BUT HAS SOME HEAVY PITTING NEAR THE MUZZLE. THE ACTION IS IN EXCELLENT MECHANICAL FUNCTIONING CONDITION, THE METAL FINISH IS GONE. IT ASLSO COMES WITH THE CHAMBER CAST, BORE SLUG, DECAPPING DIE (45-70 READJUSTED) AND A SIZING DIE (45-70 GROUND SHORTER) TO SIZE 36MM CASE. IT USES A 7.62 X 54 SHELL HOLDER (NOT INCLUDED!). SHIPPING IS $35 - I USE MY FFL AS HE PACKAGES VERY WELL AND FULLY INSURES BUT IT IS AN ANTIQUE AND SHIPS WITHOUT FFL PAPERWORK.
