Mauser Model 1904

The Mauser Model 1904 and Model 1907 were Gewehr 98 pattern bolt-action rifles produced by Mauser and Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken (DWM). They were designed for export market. Copies were later produced in China and in Spain. The Models 1904 and 1907 were similar to the Gewehr 1898. They featured a longer cocking piece. Only the rifles made for Paraguay kept the Lange Visier sight of the German rifle. While most of the rifles were fitted only with a short bayonet lug that required a bayonet with a muzzle ring, rifles ordered by Paraguay and Ecuador had another lug to fit the Mauser Model 1895 bayonet. The Siamese model was heavier and slightly longer. The Brazilian military police ordered a carbine variant, with a bent bolt handle. A bayonet lug was fitted under the barrel band, similarly to the Mauser Model 1893.
