Up Next We Have a Steyr Mannlicher M1895 Infantry Rifle, It Appears in Good Condition For Age. The Mannlicher M1895 (German: Infanterie Repetier-Gewehr M.95, Hungarian: Gyalogs?gi Ism?tlo Puska M95; ?Infantry Repeating-Rifle M95?) is a straight pull bolt-action rifle, designed by Ferdinand Ritter von Mannlicher that used a refined version of his revolutionary straight-pull action bolt, much like the Mannlicher M1890 carbine. It was nicknamed the Ruck-Zuck-Gewehr by Austrian troops (ruck-zuck spoken as ?roock-tsoock?, in common language meaning ?fast as a flash?, at the same time echoing the repeating sound) and ?Ta-Pum? by Italian troops who even wrote a song about it during World War I. Originally they were chambered for the round-nosed 8?50mmR cartridge, but almost all were rechambered to accept the more powerful spitzer 8?56mmR cartridge in the 1930s. I am unsure What This Example is Chambered For.
