Yet Another Mannlicher Schönauer: My M-1910 Has Arrived!

Well my latest acquisition has finally hit town, however it will be sitting in the gunshop for a while till the paperwork is sorted. You will have to be patient for the photos, although I can toss up the image that accompanied the initial advertisement:



The rifle is a factory take-down M-1910 Mannlicher Schönauer, chambered for the 9.5x56 Mannlicher cartridge, otherwise known as the .375 Rimless Nitro-Express (and yes, this particular specimen does have British proof-marks!). Stock is original but surprisingly without checkering. It also has the marvellous Mannlicher trap-buttplate with provision for spare cartridges. I love this stuff!

It was described as "very good condition, with excellent bore, almost as new". I have inspected the rifle and its bore is indeed 'as new'.

Once again, I am one happy camper!

Stand by for photos in a week or two.
