At the time, Belgium was looking to bolster its domestic arms industry, and felt that manufacturing a Mauser Design would really help them in this goal.

However, Mauser already had supplied arms to numerous countries, and when they were looking to update their rifles, they came back to Mauser. Unfortunately they failed to convince the Commission to reverse its decision, and the attempt to win over Bavaria did not succeed either. The Mauser Company then set about trying to sell this new design. The main features were the ability to use stripper clips to feed the magazine (a revolution in rate of fire), and its rimless cartridge (7.65 Argentine Mauser), advanced for the time. The two rifles became known as the 89 Belgian (with a barrel shroud) and the 91 Argentine (with a 71 layout) Mausers, identical in their function and feed system. In the meantime, Paul Mauser created two different variations of the same rifle, one with a stock strengthened with a barrel shroud and a traditional design following the layout of the 71 series, in hope he might be able to overturn the commission's decision, or at least sell his design to the Kingdom of Bavaria, which adopted its own arms. The commission preferred to create their own design, which was what became theВ Gewehr 1888, often called the 'Commission Rifle'. Because of setbacks brought on by Wilhelm Mauser's death, they failed to have the design completed by 1882, and the German Rifle Test Commission ( Gewehr-PrГјfungskommission) was formed. After the Mauser brothers finished work on the Model 71/84 for Germany in 1880, the design team set out to create a small caliber repeater that used smokeless powder. This is a very nice example of the Model 1891 Argentine Mauser rifle, one of many 'export' models made for foreign governments, all based on the Mauser Model 1889. I dont know about the sights, over at gunboards some is sure to know though.Original Item:В Only one available. But its bigger case might have lower pressure? I seem some of the Norma ammo exceeds 308. I've been shooting Norma and privi ammo i got cheap at a gun show.ДЄs to the sights i have no idea, mine the sights are removed and its wearing a 4-16 scope. Although i have about 80 pieces of norma brass for the 7.65 and dies i just have not got around to loading any up yet. I have several M1890 Turk original Rifles, but no Carbines (Unknown if any were made).so my original Turk action will grace a 'Replica' M1890 Carbine, in correct calibre.sights I don't know, probably the same as the Argy M91 Carbine?Дoc AVThat's a bummer about 8mm you are correct in 7.92 x 57JS, I hand load for my K98 with 200g noslers running around 2650FPS it would be convent but those are max loads also. I have a Turk M1890 action, and after some 20 years, picked up an FN 7,65 Carbine Barrel (Commercial) which will thread up beautifully into the small shank reciever. Keep to the original 45,000 CUP levels of the original 7,65mm Round Nose load. The M1890 and M1891 action is definitely NOT suitable for '8mm' whatever that may be (ie, 7,9x57 ). Whilst the Turks did convert some of their M1890 Mausers to 7,9mm in 1929, they did not last very long.hardly any have come to either the US or Aus.
