Brescia ~ Vertelli ~ 10.4×47mmR
Description: The Vetterli rifles were a series of Swiss army service rifles in use from 1869 to 1889, when they were replaced with Schmidt–Rubin rifles. Modified Vetterli's were also used by the Italian Army. With a regular bolt featuring for the first time two opposed rear locking lugs. This novel type of bolt was a major improvement over the simpler Dreyse and Chassepot bolt actions. The Vetterli was also the first repeating bolt-action rifle to feature a self-cocking action and a small caliber bore. Due to the Swiss Federal Council's early 1866 decision to equip the army with a breech-loading repeating rifle, the Vetterli rifles were, at the time of their introduction, the most advanced military rifles in Europe. The Vetterli was the replacement for the Eidgenössischer Stutzer 1851, an Amsler-Milbank metallic cartridge conversion from previous Swiss muzzle-loading rifles. .41 Swiss SOLD Antique: Yes Chambers: 10.4×47mmR Metal Condition: Good Wood Condition: Good Bore Condition: Good Barrels: 34 Fore End: Good Butt Pad: Good Weight: 7lbs 9oz Sights: Open Sights Item Location: Berlin |
