*HIGH ORIGINAL CONDITION MANNLICHER SCHONAUER MODEL 1910 TAKEDOWN CARBINE WITH POP-UP REAR SIGHT.

SN 6856. Cal. 9.5 x 57. (.375 Nitro Express Rimless 2-1/4″) 19-1/2″ Tapered round bbl is fitted with one standing, one folding leaf rear sight, and banded-on front ramp with German silver bead. Typical action is marked “Patent Mannlicher Schonauer M. 1910″ on stippled receiver ring, and is fitted with double pull single trigger. Carbine takes down by removing a front pin magazine, and by flipping a small lever in front of trigger guard bow allowing bbl and action to be tipped out of stock. This feature was available by special order only with an extra cost of $15.00 in 1939. (Price of carbine at the time was $140.00). Carbine is also fitted with spring loaded folding peep sight with two position aperture, which cams out of the way when bolt is operated, and is retained folded in stock by small detent. This was also a $12.00 extra cost, and special order accessory. Relatively plain European walnut steel capped pistol grip stock measures 14-1/2” over serrated steel buttplate with trap, which contains orig 4-pc brass and steel cleaning rod, and has space for two spare cartridges. Stock features sling loops, small right hand cheekpiece, and point pattern checkering with line and mullered borders. Toe line is stamped “33368”. Stock in front of magazine is stamped “Made in Austria”. Drop at heel: approx 2-15/16″, drop at comb: approx 1-7/8″. Weight: 6 lbs 10 oz. LOP: 14-1/2″. CONDITION: Excellent. All metal parts retain 85% + orig blue with some sharp edge wear. There is some light flecking on magazine cover. Bolt stop retains approx 90% of its orig temper blue, most silvering on button. Bolt is slightly silvered from sliding in action runways. Buttplate retains nearly all of its blue, with some silvering at bump and on sharp edges. Stock retains nearly all of its orig varnish finish, grain slightly raised, with a number of light and medium handling marks. Checkering is very lightly worn, and with one small dent in forend checkering at bottom left. Bore is excellent, bright, sharp, and shiny throughout. Action is smooth and crisp. Carbine appears to have been carried a bit, but shot very little. As fine an example of this unusual Mannlicher variety as one could hope to find. 4-54006 (3,000-5,000) – Lot 2501
