This is an excellent condition example of the Model 1895 Chilean Mauser Rifle, made by the renowned LUDWIG LOEWE ARMS COMPANY of BERLIN. It shows signs of service, but still retains much of the original finish, and was definitely well cared for during its service life. The bolt only has a bit of of a primer burn ring, indicating it was not actually used very much. It has a great lightly worn look and a great color!
