Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Model 1889 Cavalry Rifle was introduced in 1912 after trials with a similar prototype. It is a purpose-built carbine, lacking the barrel jacket or a bayonet lug. The stock is not quite half-length but does not run all the way forward and lacks a metal cap. The ladder sight has been replaced with a slider type (like a Gew.98 rifle). This carbine is setup for a side sling, with a swivel on the left side of the stock just at the end of the receiver tang and a metal “button” just above the trigger that would set into a leather shield on the cavalryman’s back. These will display the serial prefix “R.”
