Very good condition antique Ottoman Model 1887 Mauser Rifle that was captured by Bulgarian forces during the Balkan Wars and subsequently arsenal converted to an 8 x 50r caliber single-shot-only carbine with a 21” barrel. The original Ottoman markings on the receiver were removed, and the only marking is “STEYR” on the barrel. Mechanically functions fine. Metal finish is arsenal reblue showing some normal wear. Bore is very good with strong rifling. Stock has been arsenal refinished and shows some normal handling marks. Complete with a brass-tipped cleaning rod. An interesting gun that will make a great addition to a collection.
