Hi all.
Here is my old warrior, an Argentine M1891 Mauser, in 7.65x53. It was manufactured in 1899 for an Argentine contract, however sold to Peru instead, hence the lovely Peruvian crest. A great and very accurate shooter. Wonder what it has seen.

Love that tangent rear sight. My favorite CZs have tangent rear sight. Beautiful old Mauser. True classic.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw it.

Iraqveteran8888 has a video about the M1891 Argentine. Very accurate his too. Although he has a different rear sight. Mine has the Mauser 98 type, and these were fitted to the Peruvian rifles but not the Argentine ones.
