Overview
The Mauser Model 98 is a bolt-action rifle designed by Paul Mauser that became one of the most influential firearm designs in history. It was adopted by the German Army in 1898 as the Gewehr 98. The M98 features Paul Mauser's controlled-round feed system and a large claw extractor for reliable extraction. The three-position safety and internal 5-round magazine became standard features for military bolt actions worldwide. The Mauser action is widely regarded as the strongest and safest bolt-action design ever produced.
