German 1871 Carbine 11mm

This German Model 1871 Carbine chambered in 11mm Mauser is a scarce and historically important military firearm from the early days of Mauser development. Manufactured in 1877 and featuring a 20-inch barrel with a dark bore, this carbine remains in fair condition and retains its compact military profile. Carbines of this type were issued to cavalry and support troops who required a shorter, more maneuverable firearm than the standard infantry rifle. The Model 1871 helped establish the Mauser name as one of the most influential forces in firearms design, laying the groundwork for generations of military rifles that followed. As an antique firearm, no FFL is required for transfer. This example offers collectors a rare opportunity to acquire a genuine early Mauser military carbine. Please see photos.
