This is a standard model for the 1871 Mauser bolt action and also fitted the tube magazine version of this rifle, brought out in 1884. It is maker marked Weyersberg & Kirschbaum, half polished out. The scabbard markings are a mismatch for the hilt, but this is fairly common with these weapons. The grip is brass, as are the mounts. The date and imperial cypher have been polished out at the base of the blade. The condition is a little sub-standard, inasmuch as the quillons are somewhat bent at the muzzle ring and the scabbard seam is only just intact. However, this is an increasingly hard-to-find bayonet. |
