This is an exceptionally fine Antique Chilean Model 1895 Mauser Rifle in 7x57mm Mauser, manufactured by Loewe & Company in Berlin, Germany, in 1895, as confirmed by the serial number F7915 and the crisp 1895-dated Chilean crest cartouche. Designed by Paul Mauser, the Model 1895 was a bolt-action rifle built for the Chilean military, renowned for its robust design and the influential 7x57mm Mauser cartridge, which offered excellent accuracy and power for military and hunting use. Produced by Ludwig Loewe before the company’s merger into Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) in 1897, this rifle is a true antique, exempt from FFL requirements (except in California). Its historical significance lies in its role as a key export model for Chile, reflecting the global impact of Mauser’s design during the late 19th century, with many seeing service in South American conflicts like the Chilean Civil War of 1891. This example, with all matching numbers, is a rare find for collectors of South American military arms.

The rifle is in exceptionally fine condition, with an excellent bore and walnut stocks showing minimal wear. The fire blue finish on the ejector assembly, rear sight slide, magazine follower, and trigger remains vibrant, complemented by the crisp Chilean crest on the receiver and 1895-dated cartouche on the buttstock. All markings, including “MAUSER CHILENO MODELO 1895 / MANUFACTURA LOEWE BERLIN,” are sharp and legible. The 29" barrel and internal magazine are pristine, and the rifle is mechanically fine, ready for display or cautious use with appropriate ammunition. The matching serial numbers on the receiver, stock, bolt, and other components enhance its collectible value.
