Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
While this was taking place, the Argentine Small Arms Commission contacted Mauser in 1886 to replace their Remington Rolling Block rifles. 180,000 rifles and 30,000 carbines, all chambered in 7.65×53mm Mauser, were ordered. As with other early Mausers, the arms designated Mauser Modelo 1891 were made by the Ludwig Loewe company and the Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken. M1891 carbines were still in service with the Argentine Police in the 1960s. Bolivia bought 15,000 Argentine-made Modelo 1891s in the period between 1897 and 1901, they were designated Modelo 1895 (not to be confused with the Mauser Model 1895). They saw combat during the Chaco War. Colombia and Ecuador also purchased argentine-made M1891s. Peru bought an identical rifle from Ludwig Loewe & Co factory, the Peruvian Model 1891. Several thousand were bought.
Spain bought some 1,200 Mauser 1891 rifles and carbines in 7.65×53mm Mauser for trials. Eventually, the Kingdom adopted the Mauser Model 1893, firing the 7×57mm Mauser cartridge. In 1893, Spain bought several thousands of Modelo 1891 rifles and carbines from Argentina to quell the Melilla revolt in the Moroccan Rif. Later shipped to Cuba, the guns were captured in 1898 by the American forces at the end of the Spanish–American War. The Ludwig Loewe Company manufactured this example and was a contract rifle produced for Argentine with a total of 180,000 rifles and 30,000 carbines manufactured, all chambered in 7.65×53mm Mauser cartridge, and featured a smooth walnut stock, 29 1/4" barrel, blue finish, blade front sight and fold adjustable v-notch ladder rear sight. These examples are a prefect choice to add to any firearm collection.
