The Argentine Commission's relentless pursuit of tactical superiority resulted in a major contribution to the development of Mauser's now famous bolt-action system. It also supplied Spain with rifles to help suppress the Melilla revolt in Morocco, which were eventually used against the United States during the Spanish American War of 1898. Between 1891-1959 Argentina bought or manufactured nearly 500,000 Mauser rifles and carbines for itself as well as for its neighbors Peru, Bolivia, Uruguay and Paraguay. I tried several times, with no luck.This is the complete story of Argentina's contract Mauser rifles from the purchase of their first Model 1871s to the disposal of the last shipment of surplus rifles received in the United States in May 2002. That is why I didn't respond to your question. Note to spooky1: Your email bounces incoming messages.

I will accept a personal check, tho, with a reasonableholding period. UPS shipping will run $20.00, $22.00 to the West coast, and I would prefer a MOor certified check. As it is almost 100 years old, the only claim I will make for it is that it is collectible. NOTE: I can see no reason why this rifle wouldn't be a good shooter, but I am not a gunsmith. Also, please excuse theoccasional cat hair on the pics - they like to help -(. Please note that some of the photos were aided by artificial light, so thecolors may appear different in some of the pics. Overall, this a whole lot nicer than a lot of the '09Argies I've seen. Themarkings and Argie crest are all visible, but are a little weak from being re-polished at the arsenal. The bore is decent, a little dark, but with good rifling. The bluing is around 90%,or better, with some sign of it turning brown (this only shows up in certain kinds of light). The white parts are all smooth, and look good. There is a smallarsenal repair to the rear of the trigger guard on the buttstock (see my photo#5). The buttstock and handguard are well matched pieces of dark walnut, and are inexcellent condition, very few dings or bruises on either. Curiously, the receiver wasleft in the white - the Argies normally blued the receivers during the re-arsenal process.

The buttstock hasno serial number, so it was an arsenal replacement. These were,correctly, the only serial numbered metal parts on the rifle. Theserial numbers on the receiver, bolt and floorplate are all original matches(original because the amount of re-arsenal polishing on the numbers matchesthat of the receiver crest and DWM address on the left side rail). I'd estimate this to be about an 80% rifle, overall, being conservative. Awesome, I was just writing 6197 occurs all over the rifle from the 116197 on barrel and receiver to the 97 on the rear most switch on the bolt- (i dont know what this piece is called, the 6197 BU on the lever, and i just noticed a 197 when i removed the scope.

Serial numbers are matching, including the cleaning rod. This is a German made rifle, not one of the pieces made in Argentina underlicense from DWM.ĭWM Argentine 1909 Mauser 7.65x53 caliber rifle. The rifle I amoffering here is an excellent example of the Engineer's Carbine. The 1909 Argies came in three different models - the 24' barrelled Cavalr圜arbine (full length buttstock), the 24' Engineer's Carbine (typical Mausershort rifle buttstock), and the standard 29' barrel long rifle.

For Argentina, this meant replacing the earlierM-1891s with the state of the art M-1909, in the same 7.65 x 53 chambering ofthe older rifles. When Mauser introduced their famous M-1898, many of the South Americancountries which had purchased earlier Mauser models switched to theirown 'flavor' of the new rifle. The action is smooth as silk, the bluing is original and 95%. A number of years ago I purchased a 1909 Argentine Mauser in 7.65 Argentine.
