Description:
Antique LUDWIG LOEWE & Co. CHILEAN Contract M1895 MAUSER Bolt Action Rifle

SCARCE Military Rifle Produced in BERLIN, GERMANY

Here we present an antique Chilean Contract Mauser Model 1895 Bolt Action Rifle manufactured by the renowned Ludwig Loewe Arms Company of Berlin, Germany circa 1895, which from 1887 onward was actually part owner of Mauser Waffenfabrik. In 1896 the company consolidated its arms manufacturing, and founded Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken, the famous D.W.M. manufacturer. All rifles made in 1897 and onward were marked with the new company abbreviation. Therefore, any LUDWIG LOEWE marked firearm is considered an antique. Most Chilean Contract Model 1895 Rifles and Carbines found today are marked DWM, and examples by Ludwig Loewe are very hard to find. The Model 1893/1895 Mauser rifle was a significant leap in the bolt action designs that was painfully demonstrated at the battle of San Juan Hill and was a significant factor in the adoption of the U.S. M1903 rifle.

The overall condition is fine. Lovely blue finish and intact crest. The action is robust. The bore is bright with nice rifling. The stock is solid all around with signs of use. The numbers match with the exception of the bolt. “1985” is dated on the stock marking. This is a very nice example of an early Mauser rifle!

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.

Barrel is 29 inches.
