Dad and I where cleaning out the hunting shack this morning and stubled upon an Old M95m Steyr. As far as I can tell it is the precursor to the K98 that steyr manufactured.
Ferdinand Ritter von Mannlicher was the gun designer. Very interesting little gun it is in the 8mmx50mm with a straight pull mauser action.
In WWI it one of the highest ROF and also the lites infantry weapon. It it suppose to kick like a mule. Need to hunt down some ammo to try it out.
Ever heard of it?

I was a bit unclear... I mean I don't give a sh..t what I'm bombing - as long as I fly with my friends.
I'm a happy bomber
