Ferdinand Ritter Von Mannlicher designed this great action and Otto Schoenauer designed the rotary drum magazine. It all started life as the Model 1903 in the great 6.5 x 54mm cartridge that is still used today all across this planet. After WW II, most Mannlicher-Schoenauer rifles and carbines were imported into the U.S. by the Stoeger Arms Corporation. The first M/S's that came to the U.S. after the war was the Model 1950. When the Model 1952 came out many had a bolt handle in the white. This unique design is the smoothest of all turn bolt actions. The cost of manufacturing the Mannlicher-Schoenauer action drove the price up and eventually Steyr could no longer afford to produce this great traditional action and then their line was redesigned in 1972 for more economical manufacture. Ernest Hemmingway and W.D.M. Bell both used the Model 1903 Mannlicher-Schoenauer Carbine. Bell used his 1903 Carbine with 160 grain solids on Elephant.
