German Model Mauser Commission

German Model 1888 sectional drawing with action open ready for loading. The magazine feeding system varies from the Mannlicher. Note that barrel jacket is sere-wed in to receiver. Details of removable boli head can be seen. Since this design bolt is bored out from the front there is no bolt sleeve. Instead the cocking piece is mounted over the rear of the projecting striker and held by a nut screwed into the threaded rear end of the striker.

Handling The Rifle

Before handling the rifle, make sure you become familiar with all the safety instructions presented in this brochure. When you pick up the rifle, always check that it's unloaded by opening the bolt. Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, even when the rifle is not loaded. All firearms, loaded or unloaded, should be treated with extreme caution. Keep in mind that most accidents happen when owners handle a firearm that they thought was unloaded. WARNING Don't shoot unless you are absolutely...

The Sniper Engagement Sequence

Professional soldiers train for combat action by practicing battle drills, a set of specific steps they execute when suddenly thrust into dangerous situations, similar to football special teams mastering quarterback sacking and punt blocking. These drills are thought out carefully so each action happens in correct sequence and contributes to the overall engagement. After wrestling with all the actions a sniper must accomplish many of them critical but easy to forget or do out of order- I...

Decocking

If you have loaded the pistol according to the above instructions, the hammer will be cocked and a cartridge will be in the chamber. The pistol is ready to fire immediately. Due to the light trigger pull and for reasons of safety, the pistol should be in this condition of readiness only immediately before you intend to commence firing. Should you, however, wish to carry the pistol ready to fire or otherwise have it fully loaded in a high state of readiness, it is necessary to decock the pistol...

Removal of Bolt Carrier Assembly

1. Move the safety lever to the fire position as indicated by the letter F. Pull the cocking handle completely to the rear. This action is to ensure the hammer is in the cocked position. NOTE The hammer must be in this position to remove the bolt carrier. Release the charging handle allowing the bolt carrier to move forward. Now move the safety lever to the safe position as indicated by the letter S 2. Using the rim of a cartridge, push in the left side of the takedown pin as shown in Fig. 17....

Characteristics

1 Loading. This rifle is a breech-loading magazine weapon of the bolt type. The magazine will hold five cartridges, and one additional cartridge may be inserted in the chamber, thus making the maximum capacity for any one loading six shots. To facilitate the loading of the magazine, cartridges are ordinarily put up in brass clips holding five cartridges each. The magazine, however, may be loaded by inserting single cartridges by hand, one after the other. a The rear sight is adjustable for...

Facial Pastes and Sticks

No veil or Spandoflage can substitute for correctly applied facial coloration. When used properly, a camoed face doesn't look like it's been painted it no longer looks like a face at all. Here are the basics for applying coloration. First, realize that the human eye sees dark colors as receding, or going away, but it interprets light colors as advancing, or sticking out toward the viewer. Therefore to trick the eye, reverse the high and low points of your face, using dark or light colors. The...

A detailed analysis of this type is particularly important because most of the critical actions and high accelerations occur during the progress of the propellant explosion and it is therefore highly desirable to determine what motion characteristics may be expected in the initial portion of the operating cycle. Since the effects of the powder gases can not be expressed by simple equations, a special method is employed to account for these effects in plotting the bolt motion curves. The...

General Operation

The series 92 Beretta pistols are semi-automatic firearms functioning on the short barrel recoil principle and using a falling block locking system. Upon firing, the pressure developped by combustion gas recoils the slide-barrel assembly. After a short run of slide-barrel assembly, the locking block falls and releases the slide letting it recoil while the barrel stops against frame. The slide, during its rearward movement, extracts and ejects the fired caratridge case, cocks the hammer and...

Remember

Press forward firmly on the handle to seat your primers. Primer jams or misfeeds can be caused by misadjustment of the set screw 13961 in the primer feed block. The most common case of primer misfeeds or jams is the primer punch not seating fully onto the primer slide. This will cause the primer cup to strike the flexible orifice on the bottom of the primer magazine tube. Watch the powder bar function, make sure you're getting powder. Set the bullet straight on the case at Station 3 so that it...

The concept of the Assault Rifle began with the Soviets in the early 1900's. Later, during World War I Vladimir Federov introduced the Federov 1916 Automatic Rifle, which fired a 6.5x50.5SR Japanese cartridge At this time this cartridge was thought to be the best for use in rapid firing rifles. These guns were used toward the end of the 1914-18 war and the Russo-Finnish war of 1939-40. During World War II, the Russians' need for the Avtomal increased, and they adopted use of a 7.62x39mm...

1913 Model-The 7.65 mm. Sauer pistol was the first to be brought out and is properly called the 1913 Modell as it was introduced in that year. It frequently is referred to as the Old Model. As a matter of fact, no model designation was assigned to it until early in the 1920's, when a smaller version of the same model appeared in 6.35 caliber Fig. 241 . The 1913 Mod. is characterised by its rather unique appearance. The barrel is housed in a rather large tube or cylinder, with a spiral recoil...

Production of the 5 and 6.5 mm. Bergmann blowback pistols of earlier type ceased about 1904. Inasmuch as it is reliably reported that the firm of V. Charles Schilling, long associated with Bergmann, actually made these pistols for Bergmann in the period 1896 to 1904, at which time the Schilling firm was taken over by H. Krieghoff, it seems a safe conclusion that these circumstances account for the cessation of production. Pistols of this type and vintage, bearing the name of Bergmann, are found...
