Argentine Mauser Rifles, 1871-1959
by Colin Webster
Argentina was one of the first nations to adopt the radically new bolt action rifle designed by Paul Mauser, the Model 1871. This began a tradition with the Argentine military that lasted until 1959, when the switch was made to the FAL self-loading rifle manufactured locally. While thousands of Argentine Mausers are available at reasonable prices to collectors, very little has been written about this line of major bolt action rifles. Colin Webster has corrected this situation. He has collected Argentine Mausers for years and while living and working in Argentina from 1999 to 2001, he took the opportunity to research the history and production of the Argentine Mauser. To that, he has added definitive analyses of the Mauser models of 1871, 1889, 1888, 189, 1909 and 1933. Various chapters cover each model complete with all variations including carbines, bayonet, sniper rifles and optics, and all accessories issued to the soldier. This is one of the most definitive works we have yet seen. The book is hardbound, 296 pages long, and profusely illustrated. It will answer any and all questions you could ever have about these fine rifles.
