Description: History of the Mauser Rifle in Chile by David Nielsen Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description As part of its rise as a regional South American power, Chile chose to emulate the highly successful Prussian military system in the last decades of the 19th century. Prior conflicts and the prospect of war with Argentina, which came to a head in the early 1890s, can be seen as the pretext for Chiles purchase of "Prussian" military equipment, including Mauser rifles and Krupp cannons. This book summarises important regional events, while also offering a general historical overview of Mauser developments. It will then proceed to expose the particulars of Chiles Mausers, purchases that resulted in the Model 1895, 1912, and 1935. Also detailed are the technical specifics of each of these three models and the historical events surrounding their acquisition. The result is the first comprehensive attempt at documenting these important artifacts and events, which will, it is hoped, initiate further research into this fascinating topic.
