That’s when Mannlicher and the gang came out with the M95. The Austrian army loved the gun but in 1893, smokeless powder really began to catch on, replacing black-powder seemingly overnight and in consequence the Austrians needed another new gun. Their gun, the Model 1888 was a bolt-action rifle with a 30-inch barrel that fired black-powder 8x50R cartridges. In 1885, Mannlicher merged his efforts with the Austrian Arms Factory company at Steyr and formed the Steyr Mannlicher group to produce a new rifle for the Austro-Hungarian Empire. : Mannlicher Military Rifles: Straight Steyr Mannlicher M95 (M1895) M95/30 The Steyr-Mannlicher M1895 rifle is an early bolt-action rifle.

When most people think old bolt-action rifles, their world is crowded with Mausers, Mosins, Springfields, and Enfields.
