Scarce Argentine M1891 Mauser Cavalry Carbine – Early DWM

A scarce early DWM production Mauser Argentine Model 1891 cavalry carbine. Marked “Mauser Modelo Argentino 1891, Deutsche Waffen-Und Munitions Fabriken, Berlin” on left side of receiver, has a nice Argentine crest at top of the receiver! Chambered in 7.65x53mm Argentine Mauser, with the handy original 17.7″ barrel length.  This was manufactured by DWM as a military carbine–it is not a cut-down rifle. It is still in its original configuration. Serial number C888X. This makes it mid-1898 production! The glossy and very dark blue finish is quite nice! (Possibly refinished.) The stock appears to have been refinished. The front band spring appears to be missing. (See photos.) The bore is very good and shootable.  This handy length and lightweight carbine should make a great deer-class or family protection practical shooter.  (UNS-888)
