       Similar/Identical Pattern Guns

      The same basic assembly/disassembly steps for the Austrian Mannlicher Model 1895 also apply to the following guns:

       Austrian Mannlicher Model 1895 Cavalry Carbine

       Austrian Mannlicher Model 1895 Short Rifle

       Bulgarian Model 1895

       Bulgarian Model 1895M

       Hungarian Stutzen Model 31

       Yugoslavian Model 95M

      The Model 1895 was used by the Austro-Hungarian forces as a standard service rifle through World War I, and from 1897 it was also used by Bulgaria. The gun shown in our takedown sequence is the Bulgarian version. Mechanically, there is no difference. Some of these guns were arsenal-converted from their original 8x50mmR (or, later, 8x56mm) chambering to the German 8x57mm round. These are marked “M95M” on the receiver ring.

      Disassembly:

      1. Open the bolt, push the trigger forward, and remove the bolt toward the rear.

      2. Turn the bolt head counter-clockwise (front view), into its locked position. If the head is very tight, use a screwdriver in the ejector slot to lever it.

      3. Pull the cocking piece to the rear and unscrew it counter-clockwise (rear view), keeping rearward pressure so the sear-contact lug will clear the safety screw on each turn. Note that the screw-slotted tip of the striker shaft at the center of the cocking piece is not a screw, so do not attempt to turn it.

      4. Remove the cocking piece toward the rear.

      5. Turn the bolt head clockwise (front view) until the smaller bolt lug passes beneath the extractor.

      6. When the bolt head is turned to the position shown, remove the extractor toward the front.

      7. Remove the bolt head and striker assembly toward the front.

      8. The striker and its spring can be removed from the bolt head by unscrewing the nut at the rear of the bolt head. Caution:The spring is under tension, so keep control of the nut as it is removed.

      9. The safety is pivoted and retained at the rear of the bolt body by a small screw.

      10. If the rifle has its full-length military stock, remove the front end piece and the barrel band. Remove the large screws on the underside at the front and rear of the magazine housing/guard unit.

      11. Remove the magazine housing/trigger guard unit downward.

      12. The screw at the rear of the housing retains the clip latch and its attached blade spring. After removal of the screw, this unit is taken out upward.

      13. Remove the front cross screw in the housing.

      14. Remove the magazine sub-frame downward.

      15. The mainspring for the magazine system is retained by a large screw on the underside of the housing. The magazine follower arm is pivoted and retained by a cross pin, which is pushed out toward the right.

      16. The magazine follower and its spring are retained on the arm by screws.

      17. Remove the action from the stock.

      18. Push out the cross pin of the trigger and sear system toward the left.

      19. Remove the trigger and sear system downward. The trigger is a free unit, and will detach as the system is taken off.
