dont forget that Friedrich von Martini was a swiss and target shooting with the military cartridge is the most important thing at all in switzerland. he startet with the american peabody and improve it to the hammerless peabody-martini.his factory was allways making standschützen target rifles for the rimless military cartridge because the state sell the ammo cheap to swiss shooter to support military style target shooting. swiss "Standschützen" rifle (Standschütze means ony target shooter here) it was only natural that Martini also start making stalking rifles for the military cartridge and its descendants like 9,3x53 Swiss but many of this swiss rifle show they were made for dual use - target shooting and hunting. peabody action martini action an interesting pic showing the peabody and the martini extractor side by side |
