M-S Model 10 receiver with 6.5 bolt face?
      #353232 - 09/05/21 05:11 AM

I found this Mannlicher-Schoenauer Model 1910 Receiver. It has matching serial numbers on receiver and bolt and is dated 1925. It seems all original and complete. I was told this bolt has a 6.5 bolt face and it does look the same as the bolt head on my Model 1903 6.5x54 MS, but it is marked 9.5 on the ejector, so is the 9.5 x 57 bolt face just the same as the 6.5?

There is also a spare bolt (marked 9.5 on the ejector) that has a cut at the rear for a receiver sight. Bolt face looks the same as the bolt that is numbered to the receiver.






Left to right: the bolt in the reciever, the spare bolt, the bolt from my Model 1903. They all look the same to me. Although I wonder about the "K" stamp on the receiver bolt. My Model 1903 has a "K" stamped on the bottom of the magazine. (The Model 1910 has "9.5" stamped in that same spot.)

Yes, bolt head faces are the same from the model 1900 to the latest postwar “Magnum” models. Just the ejectors and extractors differ slightly to accommodate the different case rim sizes. Even the Mannlicher M92 – 95 boltheads differ just in not having the two – stepped ejector groove, as the rimmed cases did not need it. Only the M93 Romanian and M96 Portuguese boltheads are entirely different as their ejectors are entirely different.

BTW, that K is a factory internal control (Kontrolle in German) mark. Found on many Steyr made guns, pistols, rifles, even Schwarzlose machine guns.
